To date Mrs Robert Henrey has sold over half a million books. Her books have been translated into six foreign languages. She is one of the few authors of our time with a huge, loyal and continuing readership. SUB-TITLE: Reminiscences of a year in Madeleine's life as a London shop-girl. BOOK NUMBER: 4/71. SYNOPSIS: In her latest book Mrs Robert Henrey has drawn on her experience when, as a golden-haired girl of seventeen, te young Madeleine worked for rather more than a year as a very junior assistant in a famous Regent Street department store that contained, as it still does, so many things that a woman can desire. These reminiscences, bright with the freshness of youth, suggest that for a girl some problems remain constant, irrespective of fashion or point of time. Youth often feels near to tragedy and despair. This episode in Madeleine's life, lived with febrile intensity, falls between The Little Madeleine and Madeleine Grown Up, and has so far remained a troubled, difficult secret. Rightly, we think, Madeleine felt that her London shop-girl days needed a volume of their own. Julia is its name. To reflect upon and recollect her youth more easily she decided to write of herself as Julia in the third person. The Little Madeleine becomes the Little Julia--a Julia searching for love, though not yet finding it, always under the influence of her dressmaking mother, watching wide-eyed the difficulties and aspirations of other, older girls. It is around such problems that Mrs Henrey has woven a fascinating narrative that must appeal to her thousands of admirers throughout the world. Madeleine Henrey, though born in Montmartre, came to London as a young girl, married an English journalist and, for a time, worked on a London evening paper. But autobiography, the painstaking diagnosis of every phase of her life, was to prove her constant concern. Chronologically her books now begin to fall into place. "Author, story, language are absolutely one," wrote a critic. "We expect a book and find a human being." Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Phyllis Ginger (illustratore).…
