In The Risk-Taker: An Autobiography Rosalie describes the first few idyllic years of her life in Wales. The year is 1951, and the family experience many of the typical joys and sorrows of countryside living. Then life changes dramatically when her father returns home and an army tenement in the city of Liverpool becomes home. Another posting soon follows, and with it, more terror and confusion.
At the age of seventeen, she manages to escape to start a new life in the W.R.A.F. But there is a problem, and one that will follow her wherever she goes. For her, there is no escape, because 'the problem' is in her own body.
This is a deeply personal and compelling narrative that is handled with searing honesty and painstaking sensitivity.
