Caddie is a powerful and unflinching memoir that charts the life of a working-class woman in Sydney during the Depressionalone, deprived of privilege, yet determined to make a life for her two children. Leaving behind a failed marriage, she walks into a world of late nights behind the bar, tough clientele, scarce support and unrelenting hardship. Yet through it all she preserves her dignity, her love for her children, and her refusal to invite pity. With a thoughtful introduction by Dymphna Cusack, this edition illuminates not only one womans struggle but the broader social landscape of women, the economy and survival in this era.
