Jubilee - Claire Rayner

 The marriage between Mildred Amberly and Lizah 'Kid' Harris, a Jewish boxer from the East End seems a union doomed to failure. However, they have a daughter, Poppy who has the strong will and feistiness of her parents as well as an insatiable appetite for all life's experiences. Poppy's first memory is of Queen Victoria's Jubilee in 1897.
And so begins the story of Poppy's life during a period of rapid and monumental change for herself and for all women.
