Description
Caroline Slocock's memoir offers a unique insight into Margaret Thatcher's final years as Prime Minister, drawing on her own experiences as Thatcher's private secretary and diaries from the time. This vivid account paints a nuanced portrait of a woman who continues to be the subject of sexist stereotypes.
Slocock reflects on the challenges women face in public life and argues that it's time to rewrite how powerful women are portrayed. Her remarkable story charts life inside Downing Street during its dying days, providing a fresh perspective on a pivotal moment in British history.
