Description
Florence is looking after the house all right. Caroline Cameron's decision to stay and be bombed with her partner is touching, but also somewhat superficial. As the story begins, Caroline is contemplating an affair with an actor, but war intervenes and she evacuates to the village of Chesterford with her young daughter. There, she stays with school-friend Constance Smith, a warm-hearted and generous woman who has made a catastrophic marriage to salesman Alfred. The two women couldn't be more different, yet they find common ground as they navigate the challenges of blackouts, shelters, and village drama. As they weather the storm, their differences allow them to bring out the best in each other, leading to a tale of troubles on the Home Front that is both rollicking and irresistible. This new edition features an introduction by Stacy Marking.
