The Dreaming Suburb - Ronald Frederick Delderfield

Descriere The Dreaming Suburb - Ronald Frederick Delderfield

\n \nBetween the wars, the lives of four neighboring English families intersect in this highly recommended saga by a New York Times-bestselling author (Sunday Express). \n \n In the spring of 1919, his wife's death brings Sergeant Jim Carver home from the front. He returns to be a single parent to his seven children in a place he has never lived: Number Twenty, Manor Park Avenue, in a South London suburb. \n \n The Carvers' neighbor Eunice Fraser, at Number Twenty-Two, has also known tragedy. Her soldier husband was killed, leaving her and her eight-year-old son, Esme, to fend for themselves. \n \n At Number Four, Edith Clegg takes in lodgers and looks after her sister, Becky, whose mind has been shattered by a past trauma. \n \n No one knows much about the Friths, at Number Seventeen, who moved to the Avenue before the war. \n \n The first book in the two-part historical series the Avenue, which also includes The Avenue Goes to War, The Dreaming Suburb takes readers into the everyday lives of these English families between World War I and World War II, as their hopes, dreams, and struggles are played out against a radically changing world.\n
