** THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ** 'This book is a must' Peter
Hennessy On Boxing Day 1962, when Juliet Nicolson was eight years
old, the snow began to fall. It did not stop for ten weeks. The
threat of nuclear war had reached its terrifying height with the
recent Cuban Missile Crisis, unemployment was on the rise, and yet,
underneath the frozen surface, new life was beginning to stir. From
poets to pop stars, shopkeepers to schoolchildren, and her own
family's experiences, Juliet Nicolson traces the hardship of that
frozen winter and the emancipation that followed. That spring, new
life was unleashed, along with freedoms we take for granted today.
'An absolutely mesmerising book' Antonia Fraser
