In My Own Time Almost An Autobiography by Nina Bawden

In My Own Time Almost An Autobiography by Nina Bawden

£7.99

About this item

Nina Bawden's acclaimed career spans twenty adult novels and seventeen for children. She turns now to her own story and in deceptively simple vignettes take sus through her life, fascinatingly reveling the inspirations of many of her books. We learn about her childhood evacuation to Suffolk and wales and of her years at Oxford, where she met Richard Burton and Margaret Thatcher. And she gives us a courageous account of her oldest son Niki, who was diagnosed schizophrenic.

In My Own Time confirms the great talent and the quiet heroism of a very special woman.
