MECURIAN BOOKS – A different point of view … ‘Em’

EM … A day in the life of a Northern Girl: This story is written in twenty four chapters, one for each hour of just one day in the life of Hartlepool girl, Emily Macklam. Minute by minute we see it develop from struggling to raise her abrasive, sickly mother from her bed; fighting off the unwelcome advances of an amorous boss, tackling a determined shoplifter, standing her ground against overzealous, hackneyed social workers and finding a hurried, slightly desperate physical love in the embers of a fiery night out with ‘the girls’. Simply a sometimes challenging, often amusing read from a great northern writer.
