Description
Geraldine Glover's life has been shaped by the harsh realities of war-torn Britain. Working as a machinist at Rubins clothing factory in the East End, she dreams of a more glamorous existence. When Tony Hanford, the young proprietor of a small jeweller's shop in Bond Street, enters her world, Geraldine is catapulted into a new realm - but one that comes with a steep price. As the Armistice hangs in the balance, Geraldine must navigate the complexities of her newfound world and confront the consequences of her choices. With its vivid portrayal of 20th-century Britain, The Factory Girl is a gripping tale of love, loss, and transformation. Set against the backdrop of post-war London, this novel explores the intricate relationships between class, identity, and desire. Maggie Ford's masterful storytelling brings to life a bygone era, revealing the resilience and determination of its characters in the face of adversity.
