Summary
Try as she might, Darling always seem to make the wrong life
choices. Yet whilst she suffers from the slings and arrows that
Fate keeps hurling down on her, she refuses to be beaten. Yes,
life is a struggle and she often ends up flat on her face like a cheap
vaudeville act. But she perseveres, each setback merely
galvanising her future efforts to succeed. Is she wonder-woman or
blunder-woman?
