Review
This is as stark and acidic a collection of war stories as you will read in a long time. Stripped bare of the sentimentalism attached to love in wartime, writers such as Elizabeth Bowen, Jean Rhys, Beryl Bainbridge and Dorothy Pareker provide poignant, wry, subversive tales about lovers and married couples... Revelatory reading. (SCOTSMAN)
Not all the best war stories are told by men...Each story gives a glimpse into the special circumstances of wartime and the life led by ordinary women of courage and compassion. No guns or battles but plenty of poignant drama. (TORQUAY HERALD EXPRESS)
