Opis

Two brothers, Arthur and Jake, are the sons of a local farmer in the mid-1930s, when life is tough and another world war is looming. And then there is Ian, son of the local doctor, far too sure that he knows the difference between right and wrong. By now it is the Fifties, and the world has changed - a little, but not enough.
