Description
Lorna Sage's Bad Blood is a vivid and witty memoir that brings to life her eccentric family and upbringing in a small Welsh town. Born into a vicarage, Sage recounts her childhood and adolescence with crystal clarity, evoking the 1940s, 1950s, and the brink of the 1960s with precision. Sage's unique literary style shines through as she explores the impact of her environment and relationships on three generations of women. With a keen eye for detail, she recounts the invention of fish fingers, her grandmother's views on sex, and the community's reaction to her teenage pregnancy. The result is a deeply intelligent and humorous insight into the lives of those around her. Bad Blood is a bravura piece of writing that offers a unique perspective on the past. Sage's memoir is both entertaining and thought-provoking, making it an engaging read for anyone interested in family history, cultural heritage, or simply a well-written story about growing up.
