When Chrissie tells Billy she is pregnant he is overwhelmed due to the war, and the economy and unsure about their financial future. He leaves; however, later that evening, he begins to regret his harsh words and writes a letter to Chrissie. 4th September 1939. One of love. He declares his love and asks for her hand in marriage. When he stops by her house the next day the father informs him, she does not wish to see him. (Of course, she is unaware of any of this). How does Kathryn Hughes depict what life was like in 1970s England, including the cultural attitudes. Which scenes stood out in your mind? I loved the characters and even felt sorry for a couple of the unlikeable ones towards the end. I think Tina, Chrissie and Billy especially will stay with me for quite a while yet. If you can somewhat suspend belief and read this at face value, it is quite a clever and satisfying read. By the end of the novel, did your view of a character change as you were reading? Was the novel’s ending what you were hoping for?

THE LETTER tells the story of two women, born decades apart, whose paths are destined to cross and how one woman's devastation leads to the other's salvation. U ovoj se knjizi isprepliću poglavlja o životima dviju žena, jedne iz 70-ih godina prošlog stoljeća i jedne sa samog početka Drugog svjetskog rata. I really wanted to love it – it’s the kind of story I usually adore – but it never really engaged me emotionally. The characters were too stereotypical for meto ever fully believe in them – angels or devils, and very littlein-between. Some of the plot twists were signalled in neon letters before they happened, and then unfolded so desperately slowly that I really just wanted to move on and found myself skipping chunks. There was an awful lot of telling rather than showing, sometimes with quite lengthy bits of rather unrealistic dialogue where people seemed to tell each other their life stories. And on top of that, there were frequent recaps in the dialogue of things that hadn’t happened long before – I foundmyself thinking “I know, I know – just move on!”.

What do you think this novel says about love? Which relationship in the story do you think gives the strongest example of love? Nos encontramos con personajes interesantes como Graham el amigo de Tina que la ayuda incondicionalmente, bueno dejando aparte que siente un especial interés.
