A roller - coaster of an affair, but its more than that: it adds to our knowledge of the relationship between the welfare state and the voluntary sector; the attitudes towards women in society and the action between political and popular debates; plus, the pressures of hiding their status from their communities. …………………………………… As the narrator, Janet navigates the realities of being pregnant in 1960s England: the suffering of challenging society’s decisions and the stigma from conflicting communities, whilst attempting to push forwards with her own choices.
