Growing up in the 1960s/70s was tough at times, especially as a woman.
In her moving, heartbreaking, entertaining and unforgettable memoir, J. M. Shorney shares significant events from her life as she tried to gain her independence and overcome the challenges she faced as a woman.
Working as a female butcher in an all-male environment came with its own problems at a time when women were classed as second-class citizens and sex objects. And when she became pregnant at 19, she had to become even stronger.
She suffered sexual abuse at the hands of two men in her life who should have been role models instead of abusers, and she experienced a horrific time when an unhinged, wealthy, childless woman threatened to kidnap her baby, and she was stalked by a young man who was obsessed with her.
J. M. Shorney also fell in love with the wrong type of boy and her life could have turned out so differently had the real love of her life not come along.
From almost running away with a young man the night before his wedding to daring, coming-of-age sexual encounters in Brighton (at Devil's Dyke) you'll experience a gamut of emotions as you read through this incredible, raw, honest and beautifully crafted memoir. And you'll be so glad the author decided to share her story and her happy-ever-after.
