Title: Single to Brighton
Description: Lilian Forshaw vividly recreates the bustle of life in turn-of-the century Brighton - with its busy streets and colourful kitchens - from tales her Grandmother, Clara, told her. Nineteen-year-old Clara buys a single train ticket to Brighton and sets off to start a new life in the fashionable seaside town. Determined to keep the child she is carrying, regardless of the condemnation of others, Clara courageously builds a life for herself as a pioneer single mother.
