En savoir plus sur le livre
Focusing on the character of Christine, a French prostitute who escapes wartime Ostend to establish herself in London, the narrative explores her self-sufficiency and pragmatic approach to life. Unlike typical portrayals, she is depicted as a savvy businesswoman rather than a predator. Her relationship with G.J. Hoape, a wealthy older man, adds depth to the story. Through Christine's experiences, the novel critiques the fragmented and divided nature of wartime society, addressing themes of industrial unrest and social injustice while highlighting the British press's lack of transparency about the war.
