Eileen Alexander fell in love amidst the falling of bombs, finding a quotation from poetry at every turn. Graduating from Cambridge in 1939, she had just been injured in a car crash (the man she had a soft spot for was driving) and had firm ambitions of studying further, making herself useful and absolutely not getting married. Her letters offer a love story and a unique snapshot of the home front, as well as resurrecting the voice of a profoundly funny writer. I wonder what anyone would think if they suddenly came across my letters to you & started reading them in chronological order? Eileen wrote in 1941. I think theyd say This girl never lived till she loved and it would be true, darling. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com
