Books to Read

I am currently reading a trilogy from a very successful author, Helen Forrester, that lived (and recently passed away) in Edmonton. The books are a fascinating look at poverty, survival, and family dynamics...they are autobiographical, which when you read the deprivations suffered, is unbelievable. They are not self-pitying though, but she is honest in the telling. The books are 'Twopence to Cross the Mersey', 'Minereva's Stepchild', and 'Lime Street at Two'.
