Inspiring, insightful and sometimes sharply funny...In all her
brave uncertainty, it leaves you sure of one thing: if the question
is 'Why start again in middle age?', the answer is a resounding
'Why not?'
*The Times*
There are lots of reasons to read this book, which has the fineness
of detail, sharpness of humour and grace of a novel by Penelope
Lively. But it's this business of changing one's mind - the thing
most of us least like to do - that I admired the most
*Observer*
Dazzling... this wonderful, funny book is a celebration of the
power of education
*Daily Mail*
A beautifully told story of courage, determination and, above all,
magnificent defiance.
*Alan Johnson*
Bracing and inspirational
*Nigella Lawson*
