"The bad blood had missed a generation. You're just like your grandfather, my mother said."Blood trickles down through every generation, seeps into every marriage. An international bestseller and winner of the Whitbread Biography Award, Bad Blood is a tragicomic memoir of one woman's escape from a claustrophobic childhood in post-World War II Britain and the story of three generations of a family--its triumphs and its darkest secrets.With wit and a dose of self-deprecating humor, Sage's prose brings to life in vivid detail a period--the 1940s and 1950s--that continues to influence and shape society in the twenty-first century. As a portrait of a family and a young girl's place in it, Bad Blood is unsurpassed.
