People Like Us - Jan Brown

Hanes bywyd un wraig o ganolbarth gwledig Cymru ar droad yr 20fed ganrif. O gefndir tlawd ac yn wyneb sawl rhwystr, dringodd i fod yn Gogydd yn Neuadd Gregynog - tipyn o gamp. Yn dilyn priodas a gweddwdod, fe ildiodd i amgylchiadau anodd, fel gwragedd eraill yn y cyfnod, heb fawr o reolaeth dros eu bywydau. Er iddi lithro i ddinodedd cymharol, roedd ganddi ddewrder mawr.

English Description: The story of one woman’s life in rural mid Wales at the turn of the 20th c. Despite poverty and setbacks, she climbs the ladder to become Cook at Gregynog Hall - a real achievement. Marriage and widowhood see her succumb to the fate of many women at that time who had little or no control over their own lives. Although she slid into relative obscurity, she possessed great courage.
