Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. NOBODY IN PARTICULAR is the hand-on-heart, honest, charming and occasionally tear-inducingly tragic, often laugh out loud funny story of what it was like to grow up in Liverpool in the 1950s and '60s as the youngest child in a large and somewhat eccentric Anglo-Irish family: Cherry's father would while away the hours playing his guitar in the outside loo until the pubs opened while her mother seemed to be either menopausal or depressed or both, and devoted most of her energies into saving for a divorce or her own business - whichever came cheapest! Capturing the despondency and deprivations of post-war England as embodied in the back streets of Liverpool and the subsequent vibrancy and liberation of the swinging sixties - the decade of the Beatles, national strikes and Liverpool FC winning the FA cup for the first time - this is an ebullient tale told by a natural storyteller. NOBODY IN PARTICULAR is not only a funny, affecting and nicely self-deprecating personal story (peopled by some splendidly observed larger-than-life characters - her family) but also a rather wonderful slice of social history, evoking a bygone yet still familiar and fondly remembered era. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Zustand: Aceptable. : Sumérgete en la encantadora y conmovedora historia de Cherry Simmonds, donde relata su infancia en Liverpool durante las décadas de 1950 y 1960. A través de sus ojos, experimenta la vida en una familia anglo-irlandesa excéntrica, con un padre que tocaba la guitarra en el baño y una madre dividida entre el divorcio y sus aspiraciones empresariales. Este relato captura la esencia de la Inglaterra de posguerra y la vibrante liberación de los años sesenta, ofreciendo una mirada nostálgica y divertida a una época pasada.'Nobody in Particular' es una historia honesta, encantadora y, en ocasiones, desgarradoramente trágica, pero a menudo divertida a carcajadas, sobre cómo fue crecer en Liverpool en los años 50 y 60 como la hija menor de una gran y algo excéntrica familia anglo-irlandesa.
