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.
