A good production but lacking in fire except for a great performance by Anthony Sher. Worth the price just for his work on this excellent play. The Best Merchant award has to go to the Hugh Griffith and Dorothy Tutin production.
The third novel in Annie Murray's "Birmingham" series. While Genie's father is away fighting in World War II, her mother has a ruinous affair which leaves her pregnant; Genie's little brother leaves, never to return; while Genie herself meets a man who then disappears to war.
