Odes to Toads is an extraordinary book, into which an extraordinary woman has poured an extraordinary life. Part reflection, part memoir, part autobiography, part commentary; Bridget's story ranges from her childhood in the India of the Raj, to an unconventional married life in Weybridge, passing through a lifelong battle with depression. In the pages of this book we are privileged to meet an absolutely honest and gallant spirit who is, from first to last, her own woman.
