Forties’ Child: An Early Autobiography by Tom Wakefield (1980)
Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 610 kb
Overview: t is the 1940s. The world is at war. Here is the period viewed by a small child growing up in the very heart of England. Through his eyes, we see how the conflict affects a working family, how external events shape the domestic clutter of daily life. We are presented with vignettes — drawn with a childhood sense of wonder — of both high comedy and tragedy that reflect his increasing awareness.
Void of sentimentality, Forties’ Child is not lacking in sentiment. In its unique, autobiographical way, it indicates how — given that the wounds of war are not received solely on the battlefield — ordinary people can triumph over extreme adversity.
