Thank you! This book is a reminder of how brave women were during war times. It is a story well worth reading. It keeps your interest with the in depth stories of the characters. It covered the lives of various friends in the war but also went forward in time showing how it impacted the rest of their lives. Truly enjoyable read. ( ) I received a copy from NetGalley for an honest review. This was such a wonderful story of three women whose lives are intertwined during the Spanish War. As the story progresses, you see how tightly woven their stories are and how much tragedy, conflict, and upheaval they had to endure. It was like a puzzle, where the author gave you pieces and you attempted to figure out how the picture would develop. It was beautifully written. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
It is 1936 and Spain is on the brink of civil war. Across Europe, young men are enlisting in the International Brigade to free their Spanish brethren from the grip of fascism, leaving sisters and lovers at home.But not all women are content to be left behind. In Britain, Charlotte McBain and Libby Forbes, friends from opposite sides of the class divide, are determined to do what they can; in Spain, Rosita Garcia Diaz, fiercely loyal to her family and country, cannot stand by and watch. Three brave women, inspired by patriotism, idealism, love and even revenge, dare to go into battle against tradition and oppression.Tying them all together is Jo, Libby's granddaughter. Five decades later she travels to Spain hoping to make sense of a troubling letter hidden among her grandmother's possessions. What she learns will change all of their lives forever.Deceit, heartbreak and a longstanding fear of reprisals must all be overcome if the deeds of the forgotten women are to be properly honoured.
