Head's Tales

This is a book which tells of a journey through life, and of how life is rather than how it is perceived to be. It distils common sense wisdom gained over many years in the engaging and often hilarious accounts of the author's experiences. The story follows the life of a post-war baby girl from a humble North-Eastern home through happy childhood and teenage experiences to the top of her profession and beyond, describing events in a warm-hearted and down to earth manner. The author's 'other side' as a clergy wife and her long lasting marriage and family life are intertwined throughout and provide an intimate and sensitive account of both joys and sorrows. You will learn what it is really like to stand behind the man wearing the dog collar and to be on the receiving end of the parishioners' feelings.As a reader, you are warmly invited to share the many humorous and unusual encounters that befall the author throughout her fascinating and wide-ranging life and are drawn into the conversation through the eminently readable and engaging script. By the end of the book, when the author draws one chapter of life to a close and begins a new journey you will feel you are wanting to know more.
