Promise of a Dream by Sheila Rowbotham
Sheila Rowbotham's wryly humerous and honest memoir about growing up in the 'sixties was universally praised by critics when published in hardcover. It contains all the sex, drugs and rock-and-roll that you'd expect from the period. But Sheila writes with charm and candour to reveal a more complex cultural moment that proved to be such a break from the first fifty years of the century.
"As Julie Christie said, 'If you want to know what the sixties were like, read this book'"
Sheila Rowbotham has been writing books and lecturing on feminist history for thirty years. Her previous books include A CENTURY OF WOMEN and THE PAST IS BEFORE US. She recently moved to Manchester where she has a teaching and reseaarch post at Manchester University.
