Memoirs of A Not So Dutiful Daughter

Jenni Murray's memoir begins at her sick mother's bedside. Benefiting from the chance to go to university and have a career, Jenni was able to break free from her mother's constraints, but never from her influence. While determined to go her own way, she has always felt a sense of guilt. Her mother and father died within six months of each other, and then Jenni found that she had breast cancer. This book is a diary of that terrible year - and an extraordinary honest exploration of the eternal triangle of an only daughter, her mother and her father.
