Description
This is the story of Margaret Forster's life, told through the houses she's lived in. Born in a council house in 1938, Forster reflects on the changing nature of homes and the impact they have on our lives. From the early days of blacking grates and outside privies to the modern houses of today, she explores the meaning of home in a gently insistent and personal way.
This is not a book about bricks and mortar, but about the way houses shape our experiences and our sense of belonging. Forster's journey is a thought-provoking inquiry into the nature of home, and the ways in which our surroundings can influence our lives.
