About the Book

The Child Within is the compelling autobiography of Lynn New, the well-established artist and inspirational poet. Using her gift of prose she fashions the facts of her childhood into third person format, weaving her reality into a fascinating story which opens on the evening prior to her 59th birthday; an age that by tradition poses more questions than answers. It is a time of trauma, having been discharged from hospital to await major ongoing surery. To meet the challenges ahead she realises she must face her childhood experiences to find the necessary inner strength to face the future. In the quietness of that night she dips into her memories to find answers. The spirit of her inner child responds. How many of us have not queried why we behave the way we do and indeed who we really are? The answer in part lies within our childhood. This is not an epic of tragedy but an uplifting tale of innocence, experience and growth through adversity and the resulting emotional and spiritual strength. It highlights a true account of what it was like during those institutional years of the NHS in the 1950s through a child's eyes. Lynn had much experience as a young patient and later trainer for her SRN at the Jersey School of Nursing in the early 1970s having returned to the much-loved Channel Island of her birth. Raised within the freedom of the English countryside, her childhood home of Dunstable develops into a commuter corridor town and she watches as her beloved fields are abruptly laid under concrete; her world is changing! As she becomes a teenager she is made aware of unsolvable problems threatening to destroy the unity of her family. Will Lynn meet her 'Child Within' at the junction of understanding during that long night of personal recall? Will she harness the child's strengths, enabling her to courageously move forward into her future? Life is never that simple.
