After working as a journalist in Paris, she moved to London to marry, but became a teacher while yearning to write. Some of her poems were published in Magma, Envoi, etc. She also wrote two plays: The Deal, and Now and Then, as well as a few stories for children.Her first memoir, Two’s Company, published in 2011, a sensitive and often merry journey relating her attempts to find love in her sixties, was a welcome diversion from the painful pilgrimage recalled in her second book.Writing The Price of Silence became urgent in 2003 following her mother’s death, leaving her free to face up to a hidden past. Its publication comes at a time when the sins of the fathers are being exposed and the rights of children continue to be ignored, prompting the author to call for a universal campaign for each of us to make a Promise to respect and protect every child, which concludes the book.The Promise forms part of this book.показать меньше
