Say I am Merry

A fictional pot-pourri in prose and poetry, Say I am Merry explores love and loss and the way the stories of one generation are handed to the next. A poignant, ambitious and compelling debut.

Fleeing London at the outbreak of the Second World War, Merry and her siblings are taken far from home, leaving their father behind and cutting them off from the both the ‘real’ world and contact with other children. Peace takes them back to their life in London until the children grow and go their separate ways. And for Merry married life brings romance and daughters, but her husband’s illness also brings mounting financial pressures. Isolated from the excitement of Sixties London, anxious about money, Merry becomes increasingly aware of the religious, social and cultural family differences that run through generations of her family, silently accepted but constantly exerting their stresses.
