One of the world’s favourite storytellers tells the extraordinary story of her life
Lesley Pearse didn’t publish her first novel until she was 48. Now she has sold over ten million books around the world and is a constant presence on the bestseller chart.
A writer of heart-stopping stories, Lesley’s books are filled with heroines struggling to make it in a difficult world.
Yet this description could apply to Lesley herself. In this, her first ever autobiography, she tells of growing up in an orphanage after her mother’s death, her racy twenties in London during the swinging sixties and working as a bunny girl and dressmaker.
Packed full of Lesley’s signature warmth, wit and poignancy, this is the story of a woman and a writer fighting against the odds to achieve her dreams.
