A wonderful new novel from Liverpool's best-loved author. A tale of
loss and love set in post-Second World War England and France. This
is the story of a young Liverpool woman widowed in the Second World
War before she can know the happiness of having a family. With the
blessing of her mother, with whom she runs a B&B, she goes to
Normandy to see where her husband was killed in the D-Day landings.
Once she is there, she meets an impoverished French poultry farmer,
now reduced to driving a beaten up (and still rare) taxi and
looking after his old mother and dying brother. Will these two find
happiness together? A touching love story, a compelling portrayal
of the aftermath of war and above all a testament to the courage
and endurance of oridinary people, Madame Barbara will delight
Helen Forrester's countless fans.
