Description

Margaret Forster's grandmother died in 1936, taking many secrets to her grave. Where had she spent the first 23 years of her life? Who was the woman in black who paid her a mysterious visit shortly before her death? How had she borne living so close to an illegitimate daughter without acknowledging her? The search for answers took Margaret on a journey into her family�s past, examining not only her grandmother's life, but also her mother�s and her own. The result is both a moving, evocative memoir and a fascinating commentary on how women�s lives have changed over the past century.
