To understand these women, the author argues, it is necessary to examine their world on its own terms as a coherent whole.
Professor Smith draws on demographic, psychoanalytic, anthropological, linguistic, as wel...

This book is about lives lived out on the borderlands, lives for which the central interpretative devices of the culture don't quite work.

Intricate and inspiring, this unusual book uses autobiographical elements to depict a mother and her daughter and two working-class childhoods (Burnley in the 1920s, South London in the 1950s) and to find a place for their stories in history and...
