This book, which consists of both poetry and prose, features the reminiscences of Katherine Browne. Katherine’s story, which encompasses the entire spectrum of the human psyche, tells of the many pitfalls she encountered on her life’s journey. It also shows that anybody can write, if they are sufficiently determined and given encouragement. Of particular interest in Katherine’s narrative is her account of her war work as a Billeting Officer in Liverpool, in which she provides vivid descriptions of people’s homes and lives during those turbulent and poverty-stricken times.
