Anthem |
They know each other well, celebrate Christmas and christenings, share gardening tips and gossip, hide their private grief, display their public triumphs. And then Argentina invades an obscure British colony off the South American coast, the Falklands - provoking a national crisis and a patriotic revival.
The repercussions for the residents of Anglefield Road will reach far beyond the events of that momentous summer. Enthralling, moving, darkly funny and humane, this book is a triumphant account of ordinary people and war, as the lives of four families are reshaped by a dispute over a group of small, barren islands at the bottom of the world.
