Publisher Description: It's never too late to say sorry...... A whispered family tragedy ripples across three generations in this coming of age mother and daughter memoir. Sylvia is dying and her daughter, a British expat living in Dubai, recalls her childhood and the confusing relationship she had with her mother. After Sylvia's death, she searches for explanations amongst her mother's possessions, prompting uncomfortable childhood memories and clues to her mother's sadness. The story moves back to London's Jewish East End in 1930, where Rose is expecting a baby. When the natural order is disrupted, and part of our personal history is erased, who do we become? |
