Jenny Lloyd

Opis

As the Second World War wound down, five-year-old Jenny Lloyd began a new life with her parents and baby brother on a farm in a remote area of Cornwall. With no telephone, electricity or indoor plumbing, the family-who had been separated for much of the war-now spent days together, experiencing the hardships and delights of English existence in the mid-twentieth century. In a series of verbal snapshots, Jenny describes her youth in England in the 1940s and 50s-her memories of World War II, her life on the farm, and her experiences at boarding school. Written in vividly descriptive prose, her story provides a fascinating portrait of an unusual childhood and adolescence.
