A Slight and Delicate Creature: The Memoirs of Margaret Cook

by Margaret Cook

A Slight and Delicate Creature - the phrase was Richard Branson's description of Margaret Cook - is the brave, no-holds-barred account of a marriage that suddenly came to a dramatic and very public end.
Margaret Cook also writes of her childhood and growing up as the daughter of an RAF officer moving from one posting to another; how she juggled the demands of her own successful career with bringing up two sons and being the wife of a rising Labour politician.
In A Slight and Delicate Creature Margaret Cook bares her soul - and looks ahead to a new, fulfilled, but very different life from what she expected when New Labour first came to power.

I enjoyed reading this book about Margaret Cook and her now ex-husband, Robin Cook. Very interesting.
