Dating from between 1 January 1940 and 29 October 1945 (lacking 1944). From the family home at 5 Sefton Park Rd, Liverpool 8, 1940-1943; and from Hammersmith, London, 1945. A remarkable and vivid portrait of the development of an artistic and intelligent, strong-willed, passionate, and obsessive girl (hereafter FS), progressive in her outlook, and possessed of a remarkable capacity for self-analysis; unhappy both at home and at school; whose yearning to be loved leads her to crushes on several adults; all set against a backdrop of wartime Liverpool.
