Singing in the Streets: A Glasgow Memoir
Maria Fyfe
Reviews of Singing in the Streets: A Glasgow Memoir
One woman's chronicle of her battles on behalf of her class, and in particular, women of her class – an insight to what to expect if you follow the same path. Victories, defeats, compromises…It's also proof, in the beautifully lyrical early chapters about her childhood, that within the warrior beats the heart of a poet. Highly recommended!Dave Anderson, Actor and Playwright
Maria Fyfe
Maria Fyfe was the only female Labour MP from Scotland when she was first elected in 1987. She was an MP for fourteen years for Glasgow Maryhill. In that time, she campaigned for povertystricken areas of the city in Parliament before stepping down in 2001. She has always been strongly politically active, campaigning for the equal representation of women in government.
