Résumé : | In April 1915, Dorothea, a newly trained Red Cross nurse, received instructions to depart for northern France. Leaving behind her comfortable middle-class life and loving family, she set off with her best friend Christie for the chaos of the Western Front. Nothing could have prepared Dorothea for what lay in store over the next few years. she lived through some of the worst horrors of the Great War, including the horrendous loss of life at the Battle of Passchendaele, yet somehow maintained her optimism, curiosity and high spirits. |
