Romance Literature Club to discuss "Sentimental Journey" by Barbara
Bretton
Accessible news Wire
The next meeting of the Romance Literature Club will be held on April
17. We will be discussing "Sentimental Journey" by Barbara Bretton. This is a
novel of the life of a young woman's experiences on the home front during World
War II. What impact does war have on those left behind? When the war is over,
how do young women return to life as it was before? Is it possible to find new
challenges? How does a woman deal with the losses war inevitably brings?
Below is a short summary of "Sentimental Journey". Join us for a
discussion of the impact of war on life and love. "Sentimental Journey" can be
found on bookshare.org.
THE YEAR IS 1943
Like so many American women during WWII, Catherine Wilson was waiting
for her fiancé's return from the Pacific and dreaming of married life. Then her
father
enlists, too, and it's left to Catherine to manage his factory -
devoting every waking hour to the hardest work of her life.
When Catherine first meets Johnny Danza at the Stage Door Canteen, he's
just another GI heading overseas. But when her fiancé is killed, Johnny's V-Mail
becomes a lifeline, and soon their letters blossom into more than
friendship. But it's only when a wounded Johnny arrives unexpectedly at
Catherine's door,
that true healing.and true love.can begin.
