When I Had a Little Sister: The Story of a Farming Family That Never Spoke

PART OF THE Heart Notes ISSUE

‘We have been living on a knife-edge for so long I know this is something big.’

Catherine Simpson’s memoir, When I Had a Little Sister, is already gaining many plaudits, with The Times calling it ‘an incredible achievement’. She writes with unflinching honesty about her family life, on her relationship with her sister and her sister’s death. It’s a brave and forgiving book, and we’re delighted to share an audio taster for you below.
