Having survived an extraordinary childhood sojourn, he became a secondary school (high school) dropout and embraced law-breaking before rediscovering education and going on to become a qualified teacher. Come the new millennium, he found himself working under the auspices of the Youth Justice Board for England and Wales with high-risk, incarcerated adolescent boys whose very behaviours he once mirrored. Such an unconventional odyssey underpins the gritty rawness and authenticity of this writer’s discourse, which explores concepts of family life, child development, teenage delinquency, race, and ancestry. Today he continues to work in public protection. Vimikh is a determined, sometimes stubborn man who, despite his life’s early challenges, has turned out to be a devoted, loving, and dedicated husband, and father of four talented children. His is a rare voice that enriches the heritage of the British Isles.visualizza meno
