Preface & Acknowledgements and Chapter One - 'Childhood and Marriage'
"I was born in 1942 in the middle of the Second World War, and have hazy memories of doodlebugs, or V-1s ... to which we were highly susceptible, as we lived in Woolwich, south-east London. I remember the river used to stink of rotten eggs in hot weather."
