On an ordinary day in 1941, a letter arrives on the doormats of five young women, a letter which will change everything.
Lillian is distraught. And whether she tears, hides or burns the letter the words remain the same - she must register for compulsory war work. Many miles away, Emily is also furious - her dream job as a chef will have to be put on hold, whilst studious Alice must abandon her plans of college.
Staring at an identical letter, Elsie feels a kindling of hope at the possibility of leaving behind her brutal father. And down in London, Agnes has her own reasons for packing her bags with a smile.
Brought together at a munitions factory in a Lancashire mill town, none of them knows what lies ahead. Sharing grief and joy, lost dreams and gained opportunities, the five new bomb girls will find friendship and strength that they never before thought possible as they unite to help the country they love survive.

The Book and the Heart

Мне очень понравилась эта книга о девушках из самых разных слоев общества, собранных вместе для работы на заводе боеприпасов во время Второй мировой войны. Действие книги происходит в основном в Пендле, Ланкашир. Группа быстро сдружилась, и хотя у каждой из них своя история, именно дружба помогает им пережить множеств...
