About this listen

Glasgow, 2019. Sharon has rushed home at the news her mother has been admitted to hospital. It's clear Senga's life is coming to an end. As Sharon gathers family and friends together to say goodbye, Senga, as always, does things in her own mysterious way. She instructs Sharon to find the red diary she kept in the 1970s and to read it. There's something Senga needs to talk about while she still has time. The journey into her mother's past is both shocking and surprising, forcing Sharon to re-evaluate her own childhood, her marriage and what she wants her own future to hold.

Glasgow, 1976. Life in the tenements of Shettleston is a daily struggle. You need your wits about you to survive, and your friends. Senga has both in spades: she is part of the Shettleston 'menage' alongside her friends Bunty, Sandra, Philomena and Isa, and whatever life hands to them—cheating husbands, poverty, illness, threats and abuse—they throw something back just as hard. These women are strong because they need to be. And they never, ever walk away in times of crisis—as Sharon is about to find out.

A wonderful book. Especially read by Janey Godley. If you grew up in Glasgow it’s a must read. It brings back the memories. If you didn’t grow up in Glasgow. You might find a wealth of history on how women lived, what they suffered and how they didn’t let that suffering destroy them. Instead they used it to get stronger and stronger. The live long friendships formed and those friendships were the support groups of yesteryear. They just naturally supported each other no therapy or social media required.

Highly recommended. It’s a non fiction and fiction all rolled into one and beautifully written and read.

The storyline had me not wanting to put it down. The added bonus of the author narration was worth it, as you feel the characters in her words and accent. Great read and highly recommend
