PS I Love You [Paperback]

Lilian Harry (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 2002

For the Nippies, the girls who work at Lyons Corner House at Marble Arch, rationing, air-raids and blackouts mean life is no longer as carefree as it used to be. But new pain and pleasure lie in wait as each decides what effort she can make towards victory. Jo yearns for Nick, but wonders if they will ever be married. Hideously burned when he is shot down, Nick needs the still-experimental procedure of plastic surgery. Jo loses herself in her new life as a 'lumberjill', working among women hewing timber for the war effort. Meantime, Phyl has been selected, along with some other trusted Nippies, for secret work. Far from family and friends, she works with munitions and tries to forget her desire to be a Wren. Her husband is far away but she never loses faith that one day they will be reunited...A stirring tale of love and sacrifice, following the wartime fortunes of our favourite characters from CORNER HOUSE GIRLS and KISS THE GIRLS GOODBYE.

About the Author

Some of Lilian Harry's earliest memories are of nights spent in a Portsmouth air-raid shelter, listening to the drone of enemy aircraft. But they are also of warm family life continuing in spite of the fears and anxieties of the time. She is married and lives in Devon.

More About the Author

Hi,I am Lilian Harry and am delighted to welcome you to my Author Central page. I've been writing for a long time now, under the name Donna Baker as well as Lilian Harry, and most of my books are classed as 'historical novels', including those set during the Second World War (which is slightly hurtful, since I remember it....) I grew up near Portsmouth in Hampshire, have lived in Devon, Herefordshire and the Lake District (my favourite place!) and am now back in Devon on the edge of Dartmoor, where I am out every day walking my miniature schnauzer. Apart from writing, I ring bells, take part in amateur dramatics, go to concerts, theatre etc, read and play bridge - but only with very tolerant, forgiving people who like me a lot. (Or on the computer!) I would like to be cloned so that I can do all these things simultaneously.
