Turn on the Sun

Joy Baker

"Stone walls do not a prison make." When Joy Baker was sentenced to three months in Holloway, her children held fast at the family home-defying the authorities who sought to break them apart.

Turn on the Sun, the long-awaited continuation of The House on the Hill, tells of those turbulent years when home was both sanctuary and battleground. With humour, honesty, and a mother's fierce devotion, Baker recounts a life shaped by muddy fields, beloved animals, growing children-and by her unyielding belief that true education springs from life itself, not the classroom.

More than a chronicle of conflict, it is a luminous portrait of family, freedom, and the enduring light of love that no authority could extinguish.
