A Sprinkle of Nutmeg: Letters to Christopher Fry 1943-45 - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The playwright Christopher Fry received hundreds of moving and witty letters from his wife in 1940-45 while separated from her by war service. This selection of letters from the last three of those years gives a highly entertaining picture of civilian life in a rural Oxfordshire community during the war.
