More about the book
Memoir. The Other Day was commissioned in 1935. The literary agent Michael Joseph told Dorothy Whipple that he wanted her to write an autobiography for him to publish. Despite her misgivings, she finished it by the New Year of 1936. Michael Joseph was delighted, stating that it was the best thing she had done yet. It is a delightful book, describing in a charming and insightful way her first twelve years. Each chapter describes her at a different age, from three to twelve, with her large and very happy family in the background and foreground. Her parents were sensible and loving, her siblings affectionate and lively, and her grandmother kind and understanding.
