[Margaret Pilkington]

I have just read 'The Diary of an Ordinary Woman' written by Margaret Forster......it documents the life of a woman from the turn of the century up until about 1995. I didn't really take to it at first.....it sounded like something of a privileged back ground....but it grew on me and in the end I was sad to finish it.
Margaret Forster was commisioned to write the story from a real diary.
I would recommend it, and say, it is a bit of a slow start, but persevere.
