Activité sur The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

Mary Ann Shaffer et Annie Barrows · 2008

Résumé · The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is set in January 1946 as London emerges from the Second World War. Many London neighborhoods lie in rubble. The novel's protagonist, Juliet Ashton, is a moderately well-known writer who has lost her home and thirsts for new adventure. During the war, Juliet wrote a column under the pseudonym Izzy Bickerstaff. After the war's conclusion, her publisher and close friend, Sidney Stark, published the columns — known for being quite humorous — in a book called Izzy Bickerstaff Goes to War. As the novel opens, Juliet is searching for a more serious topic that she can write about under her own name.
