Like an especiallybeautiful time-travel device, Appointment with Venus took me back to theChannel Islands during World War II, where I revelled in every character (eventhe bovine ones) and every twist of fate that befell them." Annie Barrows,co-author of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society"Appointment with Venus is one of best books writtento show what might have happened if Britain had been occupied, as much for whatis glossed over and romanticised as included. I strongly recommend a read."Anne Sebba, New York Times bestselling biographer and author of TheWomen's Orchestra of Auschwitz, Les Parisiennes and EthelRosenberg.It is 1940. The world is at war and all that stands betweenEngland and Nazi-occupied Europe is the tiny (fictitious) Channel Island ofArmorel, controlled by the Nazis but still home to loyal villagers, a pacifistpainter  . and a pedigree Guernsey cownamed Venus. This hugely entertaining wartime classic, published in abeautiful gift hardback edition, is introduced by Rosa Rankin-Gee, author ofthe debut novel The Last Kings of Sark and the bestselling Dreamland(currently in adaptation as a 6-part TV series for the BBC).
