In my work as a barrister & a judge, I spoke on behalf of other people & was used to being heard. Yet in this other life my voice had been literally unknown. As we drove down the Mall, I realised, that those constraints were no longer there. I had travelled a long way & learnt so much - the time had come, I decided, to speak for myself.   In her much-anticipated autobiography, Cherie Blair takes the reader on a fascinating journey from her childhood in working-class Liverpool to the heart of the British legal system & then, as the wife of the Prime Minister, to Number 10 Downing Street. Cherie Blair's unconventional childhood was full of drama. Abandoned by her father at an early age, she was raised by her mother & grandmother. They instilled in her a fierce sense of justice, along with the indomitable Scouse spirit & humour that has often served her well, & occasionally landed her in trouble. The first in her family to attend university, Cherie became a highly successful barrister in a profession not used to encouraging working-class women. When she met & fell in love with Tony Blair, she had no idea that her life would take an even more remarkable turn. She now found herself in a new & challenging role in the public eye. In Speaking for Myself she describes what it was like to combine this role with life as a working mother. A warm, intimate & often very funny portrait of a family living in extraordinary circumstances, Speaking for Myself is as lively, frank & insightful as its author. ...
