Janey and Me by Virginia Ironside
Is it every womans fate to turn into her mother? This is renowned writer and journalist Virginia Ironsides poignant and blackly funny memoir of life with fashion professor and media icon Janey Ironside, for whom, even years after her death, Virginia continues to be mistaken.'There is so much to be valued in this book as a wonderfully honest, heartfelt memoir' Lynne Truss, Sunday Times
'This book has the narrative grip of a novel, steeled by the author's remarkable ability to recreate conversations, appearances and above all atmosphere. And the essential quality of all good childhood memoirs is also there: it forces you to re-examine your own performance as a spouse, parent and offspring.'
