A stunning, delicate portrait of a family bookended by war, Home
Fires explores the legacy of loss, the strictures of class and the
long road to redemption. Max Weston, twenty-one, leaves for his
first army posting in central Africa. What happens to him changes
the lives of his family forever. At home, his parents struggle to
cope. The overwhelming love Caroline has always felt for her only
child is now matched by the intensity of Max's absence. The silence
is broken by the arrival of Caroline's mother-in-law, Elsa, who at
the age of ninety-eight can no longer look after herself. After
years of living in fear of putting a foot wrong in front of this
elegant, cuttingly courteous lady, finally, Caroline has the upper
hand.
