    5,0 su 5 stelle An amazing true story about resilience, love, hope and companionship during the most cruel of wars.
    Recensito in Brasile il 9 ottobre 2019
    M. J. Dees amazed me with his family WW2 story. While reading this book I kept thinking about what makes us human, what makes us hold on in times of adversity and what breaks us. Dees gives us a clear picture to what his military family has gone through during the war. His writing style is clear and objective without sacrificing the drama. There is something happening on every page and the story keeps driving you forward.

    5,0 su 5 stelle Dates instead of chapters, so don't think it a short novella
    Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 31 gennaio 2019
    I agree with the other reviewer that it was heart-wrenching. It was also a touching labor of love by the author. He, obviously, wanted to honor his grand parents and he did it in a most exceptional way. His research was phenomenal and created the basis for many of the details that made me "feel" the hunger, the dirt, the exhaustion, etc. suffered by the POWs. Then the side story about Fred's wife, Leah, did indeed wrench the heart. I love historical novels and this one is right up there with some of the best. It will haunt me for some time. Karla

    5,0 su 5 stelle A true story written with literary flair.
    Recensito nel Regno Unito il 23 febbraio 2020
    My mother was a 'war baby' and often spoke of this fact when I was growing up. So when I saw this historical fiction novel, I wanted to read it. Leah gives birth just as Fred goes off to war. Leah stays at home with her young son Jim and baby girl Beattie. The couple has moved around because of Fred's army career - fortunately, Leah can rely on her father, a shopkeeper from Northumberland.
    I believe this is a true story, based on the author's family well written with literary flair—an essential part of life writing is to recount historical events for future generations. The chapters told about Fred detail his lengthy time as a POW in harrowing detail - the realism used here is superb, highlighting the physical and emotional effect on WWII soldiers. I have often heard that these men will not talk about what happened during the war; there must have been some heavy-duty research that went into this book. As the pages turned, I was taking note of the dates 1940, 1941, 1942... Was Fred going to get home to rescue Leah from the nightmare she was going through? If things weren't bad enough for her with only her father to support her and the two children, Leah suffers a serious illness. Mental illness is one of the cruellest things a person can experience. It could have been a puerperal psychosis or a stress reaction to the war, but poor Leah ended up in hospital for a long time - without advancements in treatment in the years since this period of history. And I think this is the crucial part of this book - would things have been different for Leah had her husband not been taken away from her by war? Fred and Leah's story provides a snapshot of the human devastation of war. A dramatic, heartwrenching must-read.

    Fred and Leah is a remarkable account of the author's grandparents during WWII. Beautifully written and well researched, the events are related with heart breaking detail that immediately captured my attention.

    Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 27 maggio 2023
    What a sad life for this couple and for their family.
    It's very well written and really gives you a feeling of what life was like for people living in Britain during the 2nd WE. Very strong accounting of what happened to the main people and
    of their
    Feelings.
