What did you do in the war Granny? is a collection of short stories loosely based on the tales told by those who remained at home during World War II.
The stories show a different side of the war but are no less poignant than the memoirs of those who served in the armed forces. I hope they will also remind the reader that wars are often not as black and white as one imagines; the preconceived notions of good versus evil can sometimes become blurred.
The recent 80th anniversary of the end of the war has highlighted that once the baby boomer generation passes these stories will be lost.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Beardsley, Zoe (illustrator). Neuware - A collection of short stories that are based on true stories told by my granny and other friends and relatives who survived the second world war at home. Whilst the men were away fighting and often giving their lives to protect their families and homeland, those left at home faced different, but no less traumatic, sad but sometimes funny events back home. War is never a case of good versus evil, there are two sides to every conflict and I hope some of these stories also help those who did not experience them to understand that it was not easy being the ones left behind and that 'the enemy' were not always the blackguards they were portrayed to be.
