وصف الكتاب: Gwen Sweetingham was born in Ilford in 1944 but traumatised at five years old by her mother's death, her father's alcoholism, and the arrival of a tyrannical stepmother to break up her family. ‘Seven Sisters' tells the story of her mother's six sisters who would step in to save their niece from neglect, cruelty and oblivion. These six diverse East End women from London's Canning Town form the backbone of Gwen's book, telling their vividly different stories of mentorship from her schooldays, education and later her discoveries of love and sex; her first-hand experiences of fashion in the 50s and ‘Swinging Sixties' through to adulthood and marriage. Her book, affectionately told, is a rich mix of personal memories and post-war social history. But above all it is the triumphant story of a child's rise from rejection and poverty to successful womanhood with the help of seven women; all of them demonstrating girl-power long before the world had thought up the phrase.
