About this listen
Three sisters in 1920s struggle to make ends meet and protect their mother from their violent father. Milly works in Southwells jam factory. Elsie dreams of a career on the stage, while little Amy runs wild with her friends.
All three of the girls fear the unforgiving temper of their father and their courageous attempts to protect their defenseless mother will have dramatic, disastrous consequences for them all.

Great story
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the audio version of this story. The story evokes many emotions in me. I found the characters very believable. I especially liked the main character, Millie. The narrator told the story well and brought the characters to life. I would highly recommend this book.

Such a wonderful book
I loved this book, it really makes me realise how lucky we are today. But Although times were hard they seem like people cared & looked out for their own. I felt, sad, happy, angry, so many emotions, The end made me actually cry. Brilliantly Written & read, I sometimes wish I was born earlier.

Jam & Roses
The 2nd book in The Factory Girls series although it did not hold my attention as much as the first. I found the story dragged a little. Nevertheless it is still worth reading especially if you enjoy historical novels.

Lovely stories
Really enjoying this set of stories- bringing my grandmother’s Bermondsey childhood to life. Love the way the characters from each book subtly intertwined.
