4 Extra Debut. Reading from her compelling memoir, Janice Galloway remembers her turbulent adolescence in a small Scottish town in the 1970s.
Award-winning author Janice Galloway brings all the brilliance of her fiction to bear on her memories of adolescence in small-town Scotland. Since the death of their father, Janice and her unpredictable older sister, Cora, have lived in close quarters with their downtrodden mother. But the timid child, who has survived by observing rather than acting, is about to hit adolescence.
Read by the author and abridged by Sian Preece.
Produced by Eilidh McCreadie.
