Dreams of Another Day

Description

Mary Alderbrook, known as Ming, has reached a crossroads in her life. A recent illness and a disastrous relationship with her boss have led to her resignation from her job at the House of Commons. She is now under constant pressure from her parents and married sisters to 'settle down' with someone suitable. In 1955, the window of opportunity for working women - opened during the Second World War - is now firmly closed, but Ming is determined to find greater fulfilment.
