About this book:
Angela O’Rourke is six years old when her parents pass her over to the care of an aunt and uncle in a distant village. It’s a common practice for large, hard-up families in 1950s Ireland, but for Angela it means only one thing: that her mother and father don’t love her any more.
Angela is well cared for till she’s sixteen – but then her uncle takes to drink and it’s not safe for her to stay in his house. Travelling to Liverpool to train as a nurse, she moves on to fashion design, where everything is changing as the 1960s progress. Soon she’s making her mark, but the pain of a disastrous love affair takes the edge off her success, and she heads home to Ireland.
Sorting through papers, Angela makes an astonishing discovery: As she learns the truth about the past she is finally free of the old sorrow: and a brighter and happier new future beckons.
