About this listen

Hattie finds herself relegated to the factory floor on her return from the war. Her workmates are unforgiving at Hattie's attempt to raise herself up, and she is soon ostracised. After journeying to Australia to marry her husband, Clara is betrayed and returns penniless, homeless and trying to raise a child alone.

Lou's daughter and parents are killed by a bomb blast. By day she works at the factory; by night she roams the bomb sites, half mad with grief. These women forge a bond that will ultimately allow them to find hope.

After the War

Both Narrator and story very good. I always find that if Narrators are good I enjoy books a lot more.

Good potential but--

This had great potential and had a very good concept. The going back and forth from one story to another made it lose continuity and I often lost interest. It dragged on a bit too much and finished ppwith an unsatisfactory ending .
