Being Daisy
Author(s): Kate Spencer
England in the late 60’s. Daisy's father reluctantly walks his 17 year-old daughter down the aisle. She is four months pregnant, and marrying a carpenter who plays guitar for a wannabe pop group. Refusing to think life is about to change, Daisy casts aside career aspirations held by her father, quickly moving from one pregnancy to the next in her own unique and independent style. Being Daisy is an emotionally charged slice of life for an irrepressible young woman who roller coasters her way through ten years of married life with humour and optimism. Her journey typified that of many 60’s brides who sought more than just a husband as they embarked on married life in the middle of free love and the background drone of The Rolling Stones.
