"I can’t remember if this is a book of short stories. The perspective was that of a young boy, the atmosphere felt Victorian. Something was happening in his family, where he started having a fascination with a piece of bacon that he kept under his pillow he obsessed about this bacon, and whatever was happening in his family or with his parents I believe he was an only child feeling of the writing in the child thoughts were removed like he was in the background watching, and the bacon was this obsession. I worked as a page in my public library, I remember shelving this book, so I just had time enough to read this, hence not sure if it was a short story. I might have been shelving around the G’s aka Gunter Grass’s ‘The Tin Drum’. It’s hazy. It has been 40years bugging me and wishing to know what happened to that boy. Is it the Tin Drum? "
