Sally Bayley's childhood was certainly unconventional. Growing up in a dilapidated house by the sea, dominated by religion, she sought sanctuary in books and found companions and surrogate family amongst heroines like Miss Marple, Jane Eyre and Betsey Trotwood. In this brilliant Shelfie, Sally takes us on a tour of the shelves in her local shop in Oxford, sharing three classics that play an important role in her unique memoir.
