As a child I longed for escape... I wished things could be different, but what can you do but hold on for the ride? Such a small house... How could it have accommodated both my mother and grandmother? They were both huge beyond their physical boundaries, filling each room until I thought the fire would go out for lack of air. White Sheep is a candid and compelling memoir of a turbulent mixed-heritage docklands' childhood. It is a story that glitters with humour and bursts with vibrant life.
