'It was always going to be difficult to follow Lowborn, but Kerry Hudson is Kerry Hudson and she has done it - cleverly, honestly, brilliantly' RODDY DOYLE 'Filled with colour: food, Prague, illness, love, the challenges of having a baby in a foreign country and making your own story' AMY LIPTROT In Newborn, prizewinning writer Kerry Hudson navigates trying to build a nourishing, safe and loving family - without a blueprint to work from Kerry Hudson is celebrated for her emotionally and politically powerful writing about growing up in poverty. Her books and journalism have changed the conversation and touched countless lives. In this new book she asks: what next, after a childhood like hers? What hope is there of creating a different life for herself, let alone future generations? We see how Kerry found love, what it took to decide to start a family of her own and how fragile every step of the journey towards parenthood was. All along the way, she faces obstacles that would test the strongest foundations, from struggles with fertility to being locked down in a Prague maternity hospital to a marriage in crisis. But over and over again, her love, hope, fight -- and determination to break patterns and give her son a different life -- win through and light her path. Newborn is a beautiful, empowering memoir about creating a family in the midst of chaos, and learning new ways to find happiness. It continues the journey Kerry started in her bestselling memoir Lowborn, illuminating her experiences of becoming a mother, reshaping her future and reclaiming her identity. PRAISE FOR KERRY HUDSON: 'It's not just Kerry Hudson's writing that is vibrant, authentic and true, it's the person herself, it's where the writing comes from; a wise and generous heart' KIT DE WAAL 'Hudson's resilience, grace and humility are staggering. She's an absolute inspiration' DOUGLAS STUART 'Kerry Hudson blew me away, opened my eyes' PHILIPPA PERRY
