This was a really good narrative of how our communities came together during WW2. Ellue Curzon depicts life in a farming village where girls took on the jobs that their male counterparts would do had they not been called to war. She also shows how rash judgements and preconceived ideas cloud our judgement. The characters that she built reflect ourselves that it makes it so realistic. I loved the whole story, characters and the underlying plot points. I will be sure to go back and read some more of her works.
