Interesting novel involving wartime Britain written in wartime Britain.
Nigel Balchin writes good dialogue and does capture the mood of the period, probably because he was busy dodging German bombs and enjoying the delights of food rationing in the early 1940's.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
