B JAMES

Recommended by Jo Ann


British crime writer, P.D. James, reflects on one year of her life at age 77 through her daily diary. Looking back on childhood moments which influenced her attitudes and ideas, and taking us through her 88 years of memories of the war, marriage, her writing career, Britain, the BBC, etc., James skillfully interposes these thoughts with her diary entries.
