In The Shadow of my Father: What Doesnt Kill You Makes You Stronger

By Tina Horn

A down to earth, heart breaking yet funny memoir by Tina Horn about her life thus far, that started out by her being abandoned at birth by a mother who had no idea how to look after nor wanted a child after already leaving two other children, and a father who was in prison. She was "looked after" by a series of adults (some abusive) but none the less survived her early years including the gangland area of the east end of London. Her mother kept disappearing throughout Tina's life, reappearing every so often for a short while. Tina's father was the more constant figure in her life and taught how to look out for herself, whenever he came home from prison. Tina tells her story, warts and all of how she was raped and bore a child and the subsequent court cases. How she looked for love in all the wrong places, but eventually found her real truth love - only for him to be snatched away! How a stroke inspired her to write this book to empower other women.
