Description
Smile Though Your Heart Is Breaking by Pauline Prescott is a heart-wrenching tale of resilience and devotion. Born into humble circumstances, Pauline's life took an unexpected turn when she became pregnant at 15. Despite facing adversity, she refused to give up on her child, and their reunion after decades apart is a testament to the power of love and loyalty. Pauline's journey from ordinary housewife to key figure in politics was marked by dedication and hard work. Her husband's rise through the ranks brought her into the public eye, but it was only when she was reunited with her son that she finally found the happiness she had longed for. This candid and moving memoir offers a unique glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who defied expectations and persevered in the face of adversity.
