What They're Saying

Critics Review

Inspiring, insightful and sometimes sharply funny…In all her brave uncertainty, it leaves you sure of one thing: if the question is ‘Why start again in middle age?’, the answer is a resounding ‘Why not?’ * The Times *
There are lots of reasons to read this book, which has the fineness of detail, sharpness of humour and grace of a novel by Penelope Lively. But it’s this business of changing one’s mind - the thing most of us least like to do - that I admired the most * Observer *
Dazzling… this wonderful, funny book is a celebration of the power of education * Daily Mail *
A beautifully told story of courage, determination and, above all, magnificent defiance. * Alan Johnson *
Bracing and inspirational * Nigella Lawson *
