My mother simply wanted an obedient daughter who
would skip the teenage years; jumping from an innocent
child to a virgin bride. No matter how I looked at it,
my mother and I were at war. 




A move to London offers a teenage dream of heady
encounters and freedom with a new circle of friends.
Defying the rules brings a shock which reveals how little
a daughter understands her mother’s fear of disgrace. 



Jane is isolated in a way we could never imagine today,
but which offers her hope in unexpected ways. 



The Baby Box is a frank and compelling memoir,
set in the 1960s. A true story, kept secret for fifty years.
