Abstract

My story starts during the Second World War and my first years when the war was just over. People all over Europe felt optimistic and states had started rebuilding for the future. My sister, two years younger than me, and I were born into a middle-class family in a small town on the Swedish west coast. We were surrounded by benevolent adults — parents, grandparents, and an aunt and uncle — who lived nearby and thought the world of us. With six adults there was usually someone to listen, support and nurture. We never doubted that we meant something. Our childish opinions were always considered, and we received answers to our questions.
