In 1945, eleven-year-old Mary lives in Bournville, a suburb of Birmingham, where the famous chocolate factory shapes her world. As she grows up, she experiences significant events like the Coronation and World Cup final, alongside personal milestones including marriage and parenthood. The story spans seventy-five years of British social change, from post-war nostalgia to modern challenges such as Brexit and Covid-19. The chocolate factory evolves into a theme park while Mary's family faces the impact of these transformations on their lives.
