DESCRIPTION - At the age of twenty-two, Buchi Emecheta left her husband and found herself alone with five small children to support in cold and foggy North London - a long way from her native Nigeria. She had few qualifications and no prospects - how was she to keep her head above water? By becoming a writer, she decided - and that, despite setbacks, was what she became. Sheer determination won her a degree in Sociology and a decent place to live, and her dream seemed to come true when, in 1972, the New Statesman started to serialize her work and her first book, In the Ditch, was published. Since then, her writing has brought her all the acclaim she desired, but her account of her struggle to establish herself - subject to the whims of publishers and the vagaries of the Establishment - evokes with wry humour and raw feeling just what it means to be poor, black and unrecognized in London. 'Buchi Emecheta is a natural born writer' - SUNDAY TIMES. inventory #25869. Inscribed by the author.
