An unusual combination of autobiography and biography, "Mona - A Life" tells the story of a foundling, born in a London workhouse who, through her own efforts, became first a wartime nurse, then a film extra and finally the wife of a distinguished lawyer. The book concentrates on Mona's early years and demonstrates how she overcame the disadvantages and grinding poverty into which she had been born, to create a vibrant, cultured and successful life. |
