Up With The Larks
In Up with the Larks, Tessa Hainsworth tells how she gave up a high-powered job and the lifestyle to match, to move to a remote part of rural Cornwall with her young family. Tessa Hainsworth had no idea how hard she would struggle; within months, she is almost ready to return to London, tail between her legs: her husband is still out of work, her children are struggling in a cold, damp, tumbledown house and the family is running out of money ‘“ fast. But a chance encounter in the local post office leads her to accept the unlikeliest of job offers. Up with the Larks charts Tessa’s turbulent first year with the Royal Mail, and her transformation from outsider to ‘Posh Postie’, adopted Cornishwoman and much-loved member of her new community.
