Muriel Newmarch was born in North London in 1903. She died in 2009 aged 106. Judith Bruce is her daughter & Funny How Things Turn Out
- part biography part memoir
- tells the story of both women which in turn traces the unprecedented changes to female lives during the 20th Century. The first half of the book chronicles Muriels world through the Zeppelin raids of WW1 a painfully stilted class system & marriage & motherhood in the 1930s
- then her daughter Judith picks up the first-person narrative as a mischievous child in the 1940s & we stay with her until the end of the book. Woven artfully through the episodic chapters are the loves aspirations & disappointments of two ordinary women. Written with an understated elegance Judith Bruce brings to life a barely remembered England of satin dresses at Swan & Edgars liberty bodices at grammar school & English summer days where silent fathers mowed the lawn in polished shoes & unsuitable boyfriends smoked Players Navy Cut. As we move through the post-war years from austerity & to prosperity & Judiths working life at the BBC the voice could almost be that of Alan Bennett. Even more so when charting the poignancy of Muriels fading days failing body & disappearing memory. A remarkable & accomplished portrait of life love & changing fortunes.
