Ascent of a Woman by Mhairi Blyth

Ascent of a Woman by Mhairi Blyth

In Ascent of a Woman, Mhairi Blyth presents an unfiltered, candid account of her life. Spanning over thirty years, her memoir shows a life littered with trauma, trials, and tragedy, starting with her dad leaving to work over three-thousand miles away, in the middle of a war, when she was just six.

With every chapter of her life, a new and seemingly impossible trial begins which tests Mhairi’s mental and physical strength, and her ability to overcome adversity. She reveals her darkest moments, together with feelings of loneliness, loss, and despair, where even mother nature is against her. Mhairi also describes her sparks of resilience and determination in fighting for herself and for her family, where she comes up against those meant to be the very people to help and protect.

Ascent of a Woman is one woman’s story of endurance, growth and forgiveness whilst overcoming massive personal loss, the consequences of which will always be with her. This is Mhairi’s ascent from a child to a girl, to a woman. This is her evolution.
