Bad Blood



Plot

Lorna Sage grows up in post-war, pre-pill rural England; a witness to her grandparent’s disastrous union and her parents’ thwarted dreams. Longing to escape, Lorna vows she will never marry or have children, but finds herself pregnant without noticing she has lost her virginity. Garnering support from the least likely sources, she marries, bears her child, passes her exams and secures a place at University. This is the story of one girl’s struggle to follow her dreams – a poignant, life-affirming journey that celebrates the power of the human spirit.
