My Life And I - Confessions of an Unliberated Housewife, 1966-1980 (Paperback)

Betty Bendell was one of the top five British women's magazine columnists in the late 1960s and 1970s. She wrote continuously for a range of magazines, including Annabel, Woman, Homes and Gardens, The Lady and The Countryman, but she was most well-known for her long-running columns in Good Housekeeping and Family Circle. She was perceptive, direct and funny, one of the leading comic writers of her day. This collection of the best of Betty Bendell, from Good Housekeeping and other magazines, will delight and amuse. From 'My dollyrocking days are over' (1966) to her last column for GH in 1980, these 87 pieces have been chosen for their glorious humour, their social history and absolute embeddedness in British life in the late 1960s to 1980. Betty recorded her era from the perspective of a mother and a wife at home, in the school playground, at the parties, in the garden, on holiday, in the shops, and queuing at the supermarket, speculating wildly about the lives of her friends and neighbours.
