Oranges rates as one of my favourite books and I have read it many times over the years -the drammatisation I have on VHS and it is brilliantly acted and captures Accy in the period perfectly, just as I remember it. Wish i had her talent for writing.
Yes I was thinkng that too. Loved Oranges on TV, watched it again recently. It even had a bit about Morecambe!

I think she is a very intelligent and articulate person who has made the most of a dodgy start in life. Wish there were more like her.

BTW her name is Winterson not Winterston as in the title of this thread. Apols if this has been pointed out before.
