Description

Spanning over 75 years, Katy Massey's memoir is a moving and humorous account of her relationship with her mother. A shocking discovery as a teenager sets off a chain of events that takes them on a journey through Canada, Leeds, and Jamaica, exploring themes of shame, immigration, and class.

As they navigate their complicated past, Katy and her mother struggle to understand each other's choices in a rapidly changing world. By sharing their stories, they attempt to heal the wounds of the past and find a way forward, but the ghosts of oppression linger, making it difficult to call a truce.

This powerful and poignant memoir is a testament to the enduring bond between two strong women, who, despite their differences, are determined to overcome their hostilities and move towards healing and understanding.
