I read him growing up then thought his writing too simple. Now that i grew up a little, i go back to him to re-learn how to write simply.

In fact i picked up Going Solo a few ago while transiting in changi. Im sure he wrote about palestinian kids somewhere but its not in that book - in that book he just talked about his time leaving the uk for shell tanzania, volunteering to join the raf during the war, shooting down germans over greece then going home due to injuries.
