Tales of a Morecambe Shrimp is a warm, poignant and often humorous memoir of growing up in one of Britain’s most beloved seaside towns.
Seen through the eyes of a rescued shrimp, the story follows young Roly from her earliest days in Sandylands through school life, family upheavals, jazz-filled evenings, seaside adventures and the tears and triumphs of adolescence.
Set in the 1950s and 1960s, when Morecambe’s theatres, piers and summer shows were at their peak, this unforgettable autobiography reveals a childhood shaped by love, instability, music and resilience.
With vivid detail and emotional honesty, Carole Bould captures a vanished world and the journey of a girl learning to find her voice amid the noise of a complicated home.
A moving celebration of memory, survival and a seaside town that left an indelible mark on all who lived there.
