This major best-selling memoir of the poverty-stricken child years in Liverpool is one of the most harrowing but uplifting literature you will ever before listen to. When Helen Forrester's father gone bankrupt in 1930, she and her six siblings were forced into greatest poverty and slum environment in Depression-ridden Liverpool. The working of family members and the treatment of the younger children all dropped on 12-year-old Helen. With very little food or help from her feckless parents, Helen led a life of unrelenting drudgery and hardship. Authoring her experiences later in life, Helen Forrester shed light on an almost overlooked part of life in Britain. Written with good humour and too little self-pity, Forrester's memoir of these grim days is as heart-warming as it is stunning.
