Synopsis
Already well known in the Forest of Dean for her verses, the late Joyce Latham's first book, Where I Belong, in which she looked back on her childhood days during the wartime years, was received with high acclaim. Now, in this second volume of her autobiography, she continues the story through her teenage years, from the comparative innocence of her early days as an 11 year-old at grammar school through the excitement of earning her first pay packet at 14, and the joy of marriage in September 1954. Included in this new edition of Whistling in the Dark are more of the author's poems and a selection of photographs from her albums illustrate the text. Here is a book that will appeal to all who know and love this special corner of England, and which will be particularly welcomed by those who have come to appreciate Joyce Latham's perceptive way of looking at the world, expressed through her stories and poems.
