Big readership surprise

My new novel The Bittersweet Year (https://tinyurl.com/3p39ju57) follows Clare, a young woman fearing her husband Robert will return from the Great War a changed man. Her perspective—the domestic cost of war—rarely gets centre stage in war literature.

But I’m also hearing from male Vietnam vets. One wrote,

“If you are a woman left at home… read it for Clare’s experience. If you are a man who went to war… read it for insight into hers.”

Never saw that coming.
