Bo, Jenny, and I

''Bo, Jenny, and I'' is a memoir describing the life of a young woman growingup in unusual circumstances, as well as a discussion of the political andsociological effects of troubled times upon "ordinary people." After an earlychildhood in pre-war Antwerp, the author, her formidable grandmother, and her young, unconventional working mother fled to England in 1940, upon Germany''s invasion of Belgium. As refugees, the family adapted to its changed circumstances and to life in England during the Second World War. The political upheavals of the times are reflected in the life of this small family and its remarkable experiences.
