Description
Ruby Jenkins' life has been marked by hardship since her father's return from war. With her mother struggling to make ends meet, Ruby takes on various jobs to help support them, including a paid position at Stone's Laundry. However, when tragedy strikes the family, Ruby is left feeling lost and desperate. In this poignant novel, Dee Williams explores the challenges faced by ordinary people during a time of great social change. Against the backdrop of post-war poverty and uncertainty, Ruby must come to terms with her own future and the sacrifices she has made for her family. This powerful story of resilience and hope is a moving portrayal of life in 1919 England.
