Darling Winston is an edited collection of the personal letters between Winston Churchill and his mother, Jenny Jerome, between 1881, when Churchill was just six, and 1921, the year of Jenny's death. Many of these intimate letters – between two gifted writers – are published here for the first time, and the exchange of letters between mother and son has never before been published as a correspondence.
A significant addition to the Churchill canon, Darling Winston traces Churchill's emotional, intellectual and political development as confided to his main mentor, his mother. As well as providing a basic narrative of Jenny's and WSC's lives over a forty-year period, Darling Winston tells the story of a changing mother-son relationship, characterised at the outset by WSC's emotional and practical dependence on his mother, but which is dramatically reversed as her life crumbles tragically towards its end.
