Annies Song

Hard-hitting true account of a journey, adaptation, resilience and recovery. Annies Song tells a personal story, family story and story of a place and time. Annies Song is about, motherhood, childhood, trust, betrayal, struggles, within ourselves and beyond ourselves in times of war and peace. Its about mistakes made and how we go on. The author takes the reader into the world of Annie, shares challenges to help Annie in the final weeks of her life, set against a back drop of health and social care cuts, a culture that has not yet adapted, nor let go of past hurts. Like Alan Johnsons The Long and Winding Road and Val Woods Stevens War, the resilience of Hull is central, reminding us why Hull deserved its time in the spotlight as the City of Culture 2017. Capturing universal emotions, Annies Song takes the reader on a journey of their own.
