by a loveless marriage, interleaved with the senseless, wide-reaching devastation of war.

rich, beautifully crafted tale of motherhood and marriage, the push and pull of passion and duty, family and love. Utterly compelling…’

‘A sparkling journey through the interwar years, and a heartbreaking and powerful climax…
