Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Born to a couple who are in service early in the twentieth century, Florence has few options. She is expected to defer to men, who are supposed to know what is best for her. Can she carve out a measure of autonomy when it really matters?

Her daughter, Barbara, yearns for the kind of education her older brother is getting, but she is expected to leave school and help put food on the table. Can she escape the life that has been mapped out for her, and become the person she feels she was meant to be?

Barbara's daughter, Linda, has far more choices than her mother and grandmother. But although society claims that a modern woman can have it all, she soon realises that juggling a family and a career can result in doing nothing well. Can she forge a path that works for her and for those who are important to her?

We follow these women's progress through seminal moments in their lives, in a story told in three interwoven timelines, which highlights the changing experiences of women during the twentieth century.
