Susan Price — Telling Tales
Hodder Children's Books 1999 Paperback, 160pp. Split into four sections, this collection of stories deals with important markers in people's lives: birth, marriage, leaving home and death. Connected by the varied voices of the three women: Clo, a young woman, Letty, a middle-aged woman and Granny Shearing, an elderly woman, each section carries a story on a similar theme from each of the three generations, told with humour and wisdom in Susan Price's own inimitable way. (ISBN: 9780340709030). Good.
