HENRIETTA SEES IT THROUGH: MORE NEWS FROM THE HOME FRONT 1942-1945
- Joyce Dennys
The second of Dennys' World War II columns from seaside England (not necessarily the safest place to be during World War II). As the columns were meant to raise morale, for the most part Dennys presents a light-hearted view of the home front, but never without the sense o the strain and tears the humor is trying to combat. Her most poignant column is one that abandons humor completely as she reports the death of the younger son of friends who have already lost their elder son.

Hi
ReplyDeleteI write from Budleigh Salterton, Devon, UK. It's the home of Joyce Dennys of course. I also wrote a book about the Second World War back in 1995 (Oundle's War). And I'm now engaged in reviving a link between our town and a community on Cape Cod. You might be interested in knowing more. If so, please email me mr.downes@gmail.com
