“I am what I am today , not because of, but in spite of, the past.”

For author Stephanie Harrington, that statement encapsulates a life story that she shares with you in “A Silk Purse from a Sows Ear”

In this true story she narrates how Georgina Jackson, aged only three years old, was forced to become Georgina Frazer. And this was the first example that Georgina was never going to experience a normal childhood, or for that matter...A normal life!

Left to her own devices, she traveled a tormented journey, desperately seeking approval from anyone and everyone, making mistake after mistake, and involving so many others including partners, children, friends, and more.

A Silk Purse from a Sow’s Ear? tells about the sadness, pain, disappointment, guilt, and desperation she encountered throughout life always worrying how others perceived her and the feelings of insecurity and inferiority that followed her in whatever she attempted. She shares a story of a traumatic, yet fascinating and unusual life.
