This book shows the war-stricken city through the eyes of five women writers, whose novels vividly portray life in the Blitz. This new appraisal of their work brings to light the way in which they documented the Blitz in their fiction, highlighting the social changes which were taking place, especially in the lives of women, and leading to a fuller understanding of those turbulent times. The book re-evaluates the contribution of these writers to wartime literature, showing how their long-neglected novels focus on the experiences of individual women protagonists perceived in close relation to the menacing forces of war.
