Nota de la solapa:
Jean Paget is one of a group of women and children forced on a brutal march through the Malayan jungle by the Japanese army during World War II. After the war, Jean cannot forget the many people who helped her, including Australian soldier Joe Harman who she thought had been left for dead. Back in Malaya she learns surprising news about Joe, and travels on to Australia in search of lost love. And there, in the Australian outback, she’s inspired to build a thriving new community.
Inspired by a true story, A Town Like Alice is a celebration of one woman’s incredible strength in the face of adversity.
With an afterword by bestselling novelist Jenny Colgan.
