Mary, who were arm in arm, hopelessly in love.
The girl on the platform, and him!
Whoever would have thought it?
GIRL ON THE PLATFORM
Josephine Cox was born in Blackburn, and was one of ten children. She met and married her husband Ken when she was sixteen, and had two sons. When the boys started school, she decided to go to college and got a place at Cambridge University. She didn’t accept it because she would have had to live away from home. Instead she went into teaching—and started to write her first book. She won the ‘Superwoman of Great Britain’ Award in 1987, for which her family had entered her secretly, at the same time as her novel was accepted for publication.
Her strong, gritty stories are based on real life. Josephine says, ‘I could never imagine a single day without writing. It’s been that way since as far back as I can remember.’
