Justice Is a Woman

Justice Is a Woman

Catherine Cookson
4.2/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
The day Joe Remington brought his new bride to Fell Rise, he had already sensed she might not settle easily into his home just outside the Tyneside town of Fellburn. She made plain her disapproval of Joe’s familiarity with the servants, and questioned the donation of food to striking miners’ families. These persistent and frequent objections soon rubbed Joe and the local people up the wrong way, a problem he could easily have done without, for this was 1926, the year of the General Strike, the effects of which would nowhere be felt more acutely than in this heartland of the North-East.

Then when Elaine became pregnant, she saw it as a disaster and only the willingness of her unmarried sister Betty to come and see her through her confinement made it bearable. But in the long run, would Betty’s presence only serve to widen the rift between husband and wife, or would she help to bring about a reconciliation?

Catherine Cookson’s powerful novel spans the years of change and hardship leading into the Second World War and explores the many facets of a marriage based on initial passion rather than love.
