Born into the narrow dockland streets of late-sixties South Wales, Odette longs for escape. She wishes things were different. But what can a child do but dream and hold on? Raised in a mixed heritage family by her single mother, Annette, and her Woodbine-smoking Grandma, she and her two younger sisters must navigate an angry world of booze, prostitution and uncertainty.
This candid and compelling memoir brings the reader up close and personal to the drama and emotional turmoil that pervaded a docklands childhood – but also shines a light on the often funny and mundane moments that are always there – no matter what.
