Set between the two world wars, an impoverished family live through
some of the most arduous periods of the twentieth century. They
attempt to survive, not always by the most considered and
constructive means, but in the only way they know how. Not every
man was a hero and not every woman a perfect mother. War was
entering its final stages and the choices made by Bill could see
him shot for treason. Neglecting his duty to 'King and Country' he
makes his escape leaving behind Sukey who struggles with an
unwanted pregnancy and the unforgiving Victorian values of the
people around her. Their only respite from war is working in the
hop fields. The story's pinnacle is set around the V.E. Day party.
Despite the stories many darker moments and tragic plot lines, it
has a natural comedy shared by these people, which help to carry
them through.
