The inspiration for this novel came to Lesley-Anne when she realised at her Father's funeral that although she'd known him her whole life, she'd never taken the time to ask him more about his life before she was born. She resolved not to let the same thing happen to her children, and that she would therefore tell the story of how she was born in Brazil and grew up in Nigeria, Switzerland, boarding school, Kenya, nursing, up to her marriage in 1979 and the birth of her two children. The thread that weaves through and holds together the story is Lesley's volatile relationship with her mother, which stands in contrast to her close relationship with her grandmother with which many people can identify. This memoir serves as an example for others to follow to leave as part of their legacy and share their lives with their children and descendents before they've passed away and taken their memories with them.Ver libro
