It was part fiction and part non-fiction. It was a long time ago that I read it, but if I remember correctly, the first half is what would have happened to her parents if the war hadn't happened, and then what actually did happen to them because of the war. <br />It's really good. <br /><br />The Golden Notebook is one I've not tackled yet, but I know it's a lot longer and heavier than her other books. <br />This wasn't an easy read, but it was good. I'm going to be looking out for copies of her other books, and I'll pick them up as I spot them, like I did with this one :) xxDani Cottonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09491873918497350940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088300628482028524.post-4434422208480624432014-06-02T12:50:26.730+01:002014-06-02T12:50:26.730+01:00Kudos for reading her books!

I always felt like I should read something of hers.M.
