From the Back Cover:

The day Joe Remington brought his new bride to Fell Rise, he had already sensed she might not settle easily into his home just outside the Tyneside town of Fellburn. Making plain her disapproval of Joe's familiarity with the servants, questioning the donation of food to striking miners' families - these objections and more soon rubbed Joe and the local people up the wrong way, a problem he could easily have done without, for this was 1926, the year of the General Strike, the effects of which would nowhere be felt more acutely than in this heartland of the North-East.

Then when Elaine became pregnant, she saw it as a disaster and only the willingness of her unmarried sister Betty to come and see her through her confinement made it bearable. But in the long-run, would Betty's presence only serve to widen the rift between husband and wife, or would she help to bring about a reconciliation?

Justice is a Woman, Catherine Cookson's powerful novel, spans the years of change leading into the Second World War and explores the many facets of a marriage based on initial passion rather than love.

This has been in my book shelf for too long so I'll just let this go without reading. I'm not a fan of this genre anyway and I've just reacently read couple of other Catherine Cookson books so I'm not so interested about this one.

Not sure this is my cup of tea either... But since it was released conveniently downstairs and I was working late and getting a bit hungry and bored I snatched it up anyway. Perhaps I'll take this to a conference trip where I'll be more than happy to read something non-scientific!

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

I was reading Justice is a Woman nearly a year ago on a train from Paris to Dijon and I almost finished it but not quite. Looks like I'll never bother with the last pages because I don't think I ever really rooted for any of the characters. So it's time this one gets another change with another reader. I'll leave the book somewhere on the second floor.
