Raffaela Barker is the daughter of poet George Barker and novelist Elspeth Barker. This book is an account of her extraordinary childhood up to and including the death of her father. Lyrical, funny and honest, it tells of a father/daughter relationship, of a childhood spent in Bohemian poverty in rural Norfolk with four siblings and numerous step-siblings.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
