| The war in Europe is over, but the one at home
has only just begun. The Second World War is ending
and throughout Britain, evacuees are returning home
to their families - but not the families they remember.
Like so many other women, Peggy’s life has been transformed
by the war. Living and working with good friends,
she is happier than she has been for years. Yet Peggy’s
life is not the only one changed by the war. Her daughter,
Rusty, has just returned from the U.S., where she
has been living as an evacuee for the last five years.
After so long abroad, her home in England has become
unrecognizable. Just as Peggy begins to restore normal
family bonds, her husband returns from the war, damaged
and desperate to make everything as it was before.
Adapted from the novel by Michelle Magorian, author
of Goodnight, Mister Tom, Back Home is the story of
a family who struggle to make sense of their new lives
in a world irrevocably altered by the far-reaching
effects of war. |
