Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Discover the inspirational coming-of-age memoir about modern poverty in Britain and the liberating power of education. 'An astonishing tale, well structured and punchily told.' - Sunday Times'Impossible not to read in one sitting.' - Stylist, Best Books for 2024'A memoir you read with the same breathlessness as you read the most gripping of novels' - i news\*\*\*\*\*\*\*When you have nothing, you cling to whatever gives you hope. Put yourself in Tracy King's shoes. Growing up in an ordinary council estate outside Birmingham; a house filled with creativity, curiosity and love, but marked by her father's alcoholism and her mother's agoraphobia. By the time she turns twelve her father has been killed, her sister taken into care and her mother ensnared by the promises of born-again Christianity. This isn't the stuff of cult documentaries; this is the story of an ordinary family trapped in a broken system. It's a story that could happen to anyone without the tools to transform their circumstances. And it's the story of how Tracy discovered the truth about her father's death and how she found her way out. Shocking, inspiring and ultimately hopeful, Learning to Think. is a testament to the power of books and holds up a mirror to the everyday realities of poverty in Britain. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*Praise for Learning to Think.:'A raw and unflinching account of growing up in poverty, which tackles the false narratives we tell ourselves to survive.' - Caroline Criado Perez'Tracy King's memoir is heartbreaking and hopeful .
