Teksten er et uddrag af en novelle.

Once she and Tig are home — once it's the next day, or possibly the day after that —

she totals up all the life-threatening experiences the two of them have had, or

experiences she'd feared might have been life-threatening. How prepared had she

been for any of them?

The time the metal chimney set fire to the inside of the roof, and Tig climbed up into

the crawl space in clouds of choking smoke and poured buckets of water on the fire.

What if he'd blacked out in there, from smoke inhalation? After that incident, Tig

bought a fire blanket, and every floor of any house they were living in had to have a

fire extinguisher.

He worried about hotels too and always checked to make sure he knew where the

stairs were, just in case. Also the windows: Did they open? Increasingly, windows in

hotels were sealed shut, but you could break the glass, maybe, by wrapping your arm

in a towel first. That would be of no use if the window was too high up.

The time Tig set off all the fire alarms in a thirty-storey hotel by smoking a cigar in the

hall underneath one of the sensors, and the two of them climbed down all the flights of

stairs and exited through a lobby filled with firemen, pretending they hadn't done it.

That event wasn't life-threatening. It wasn't even very embarrassing, since they hadn't

been caught. The time a lumber truck ahead of them on the highway lost its load:

wooden boards peeled off it, flying through the air and bouncing all over the asphalt,

narrowly missing them. On top of that, it was in a blizzard. Knowing CPR wouldn't have

helped. The time they were canoeing on one of the Great Lakes, and their canoe was

tipped by a freak wave from a passing ocean steamer.

Teksten er et uddrag af en selvbiografi.

I was born in 1959 in Eltham and raised in Woolwich, both in south London. As

someone who was female, working class and a person of colour, limitations had been

determined for me before I even opened my mouth to cry at the shock of being thrust

out of my mother's cosy amniotic womb, where I had spent nine months in dreamily

sensate harmony with my creator. My future was not propitious — I was destined to be

regarded as a sub-person: submissive, inferior, marginal, negligible — a bona fide

subaltern.


At the time of my birth there were only fourteen women members of the British

Parliament compared to 630 men, which meant that 97 per cent of those who

controlled the country were male. Our society was therefore patriarchal. This is not an

opinion, but a fact. Women's voices and specific concerns around motherhood,

marriage, employment and sexual and reproductive freedom were rarely heard at policy

level, nor were there many women in positions of prominence, leadership or power

anywhere else in the nation. Today, around a third of British MPs1 are women.
