Funny.. touching.. nostalgic, you’ll laugh out loud at these recollections of a tiny “dirty evacuee” from Wartime London. Cast adrift at six years of age, this child of war embarks on a succession of postings to foster parents in the English countryside, as well as a stint in a Catholic boarding school returning home, intermittently, during and after the war years. A fast and easy read. You’ll find this often bittersweet recounting of a chaotic childhood and disjointed adolescence spent with a decidedly volatile Irish mother, loving relatives and an array of strangers, impossible to put down!
