About this audiobook
A boy dreaming of escape. A girl rooted in her family. A world changing around them.
Congleton, 1900s.
Len is restless, always chasing adventure, always defying the life his father imagines for him. Maggie, steady and bright, walks beside him, their bond unshaken by mischief, hardship, or the strict rules of their working-class town.
From cotton mills to railway lines, from riverbanks to orchards, childhood slips quickly into adulthood as the shadow of war and poverty lingers. Len longs for freedom and a chance to prove himself, but the weight of tradition and expectation threatens to bind him to a future he refuses to accept.
Rich in historical detail and alive with youthful spirit, Wars Rainbow is a heartfelt coming-of-age story of friendship, family, and the fight to carve out your own path. Perfect for readers of Ken Follett, Downton Abbey, and Call the Midwife.
