Jam and Roses

Historischer Roman von Mary Gibson

Three sisters are growing up in 1920s Bermondsey – the larder of London – with its bustling docks, its spice mill, tannery and factories. Southwells jam factory is where many of the girls work. And Milly Colman knows she’s lucky. At Southwells she can have a laugh with her mates. She’s quick and strong and never misses a day’s work. She needs to be. Because at homes things are very different.

Mary Gibson ist in Bermondsey aufgewachsen, einem Londoner Stadtteil am Südufer der Themse, der lange Zeit industriell geprägt war. Dort spielen ihre Romane, die teilweise auf den Erfahrungen ihrer Vorfahren beruhen. “The people in this area in the 1920s had to be as tough as their surroundings and Milly Colman is a fitting heroine for the time and place.” (Leserin) (769 Rezensionen / 4,6 Sterne), 449 Seiten noch günstig?
