Описание
Amid the turmoil of 1917, Daffy Rowntree grapples with the harrowing reality of war as her beloved brother goes missing in action. Set against the backdrop of World War I, the diary chronicles the heart-wrenching experiences of a young girl navigating a world fraught with uncertainty and fear. Daffy's entries reveal her hopes and anxieties, painting a vivid picture of life during this tumultuous period.
As she faces the daily struggles of wartime Britain, Daffy finds solace in her writing, capturing the essence of friendship, loss, and resilience. Her observations extend beyond the battlefield to the home front, where women take on roles traditionally held by men, showcasing their strength and determination. The narrative illuminates the stark contrast between Daffy's sheltered life and the brutal realities of war, giving readers a glimpse into the emotional toll it takes on families.
Wilding deftly intertwines moments of joy and sorrow, reminding readers of the power of hope even in the darkest times. Through Daffy's eyes, the mundane becomes extraordinary, and her journey not only reflects the struggles faced by many during the war but also highlights the indomitable spirit of a generation forever changed by conflict.
