Joy - also called Blossom, Sunshine and Blondie by the men in her
life - walks down Fulham Broadway carrying her week-old baby,
Jonny. She is twenty-one, with bleached hair, high suede shoes, and
a head full of dreams. Her husband Tom is a thief and on the
proceeds of a job they move to a luxury flat - 'the world was our
oyster and we chose Ruislip'. Then Tom is sent to prison, leaving
Joy and Jonny to move in with Auntie Emm. This is Joy's story: an
exuberant, pink-lipsticked, tale of London life, love and young
motherhood in the sixties...
