About this listen
When Ruby and Verity met as girls, they came from different worlds. Verity was privately educated, living in a beautiful Hampstead home, while Ruby was being raised in extreme poverty. Nevertheless, they became firm friends. However, fortunes are not set in stone, and soon the girls find their situations reversed.
As Ruby goes up in the world, Verity encounters more and more tragedy, but still the girls remain large parts of each other's lives. That is until one day in 1938, when Ruby says the terrible words 'you're dead to me', and it looks like their friendship might be over for good....

A change of period
What made the experience of listening to Dead to Me the most enjoyable?
Having listened to a series of contemporary novels, it was refreshing to go back to the pre-WWII and WWII era. The author managed to interpret the values, mores and manners of the time, instead of imposing current attitudes to a pre-contraceptive-pill era.
What about Eve Webster’s performance did you like?
It was read at a good pace and the changes of accent, gender and age were carried off effectively.

Very well read.
I enjoyed this book. There are interesting aspects of war work I had not heard about before. Accurate insight into human behaviour.
Just an all-around good story beautifully narrated.

This could easily be about the present in any war torn country .
I loved the way the plot was not entirely predictable , and the very straight and to the point explanations regarding sexual abuse , and sexual relations without abuse .
The compassionate understanding of some of the characters was truly heart felt . Thanks for writing such an accurate portrayal of humans in inhumane situations .
