Home Fires by Elizabeth Day

4.0

Home Fires is a beautifully written novel that tells the story of one family and the devastating impact which two wars have on its members, not only on those who serve, but especially those at home, who have to deal with the aftermath of war. It also deals with having to deal with an elderly and failing parent, PTSD, grief, how a marriage copes with all these and the pressures of being an only child.
