Description
Moonlit Eyes is a heartwarming and poignant novel about a family's journey to London in search of a new life. When Pee Wee Poston, a talented saxophonist, and his wife Beulah are offered the chance to swap New York for London, they seize the opportunity to be closer to their son Julius, who works at the American embassy.
As they settle into their new home in Islington, the Postons face challenges from some of their neighbours, but also receive a warm welcome from others. As war looms on the horizon, Pee Wee and his band continue to play on, finding solace in music amidst the air raids. A chance encounter brings a moment of rare beauty, as Julius plays one of Pee Wee's records, 'Moonlit Eyes', and asks Ellie to dance.
This moving story explores themes of family, community, and resilience in the face of adversity, set against the backdrop of World War II London.
