A truly original story of life in and after care. The author's own
account of being left behind by her mother as a one year old and
her life in foster homes and institutions. When eventually traced,
'Call Me Auntie' was the best her mother could offer, but this was
just the start of a bizarre sequence of events. Call Me Auntie is a
telling account of abandonment, 'Heartbreak House' care homes,
family history and survival. It is also one of resilience and
personal achievement as the author discovered she also had a
brother left behind in the same way, forged a professional career,
searched for her long lost relatives in Barbados and eventually
came to understand that she 'may be a princess after all'.
