The New Breadmakers is the long-awaited sequel to Margaret Thomson
Davis' bestselling saga The Breadmakers - her classic trilogy
chronicling the life and times of a Glasgow working-class community
during the 1930s and '40s. Having survived everything that the
Depression and the Second World War has thrown at them, the people
of McNair's bakery and the surrounding tenements are now facing an
uncertain future. With the Coronation of 1953, a new age is
beginning, and all is by no means well in the lives of the
breadmakers. Catriona McNair's husband is making her life a misery
and she decides to take drastic action; her friends Julie and Sammy
have become involved in a search for a long-lost daughter; Alec
Jackson, the happy-go-lucky reformed philanderer, finds himself
caught up in one of Glasgow's worst tragedies; and the youngsters
are challenging convention in the name of romance. The New
Breadmakers is the wonderfully evocative story of these and a host
of other colourful Glasgow characters, as they live through the
extraordinary changes of the 1950s and '60s.
