This is an imaginary tale, best described as counterfactual. It originated from a true story: the Thompson and Bywaters affair, which scandalized England in the 1920s. As one steps into Edith’s unchallenged life, one sees what might have been. Had Edith Thompson been allowed to live, her existence may have been authentic, emotionally moving and even humorous. This tale focuses on her child, her husband, and her profession. We journey with her as the twentieth century unfolds, as she experiences the Second World War, and into the winter of her life. She begins new relationships and sees her family grow. She remarries, moves from her homeland and finds refuge from the publicity that she has generated her entire life—the publicity of a woman who was nearly hanged.Cutpurse, Molly is the author of 'Life Lived ' with ISBN 9781424111527 and ISBN 1424111528.
