ISBN10: 1906462089, ISBN13: 9781906462086, [publisher: Persephone Books Apr 2009] Softcover Neuware - Noel Streatfeild is best known as a writer for children, but had not thought of writing for them until persuaded to re-work her first novel as Ballet Shoes; this had sold ten million copies by the time of her death. Saplings (1945), her tenth book for adults, is also about children: a family with four of them, to whom we are first introduced in all their secure Englishness in the summer of 1939. 'Her purpose is to take a happy, successful, middle-class pre-war family - and then track in miserable detail the disintegration and devastation which war brought to tens of thousands of such families,' writes the psychiatrist Dr Jeremy Holmes in his Afterword. Her 'supreme gift was her ability to see the world from a child's perspective' and 'she shows that children can remain serene in the midst of terrible events as long as they are handled with love and openness.' She understood that 'the psychological consequences of separating children from their parents was glossed over in the rush to ensure their physical survival.It is fascinating to watch Streatfeild casually and intuitively anticipate many of the findings of developmental psychology over the past fifty years.''A study of the disintegration of a middle-class family during the turmoil of the Second World War, and quite shocking' wrote Sarah Waters in the Guardian. ...

ISBN10: 1906462089, ISBN13: 9781906462086, [publisher: Persephone Books, London] Softcover Paperback. The four Wiltshire children live a comfortable middle-class English life. But as WWII overtakes the country, the family, like so many others, slowly disintegrates. Told from the perspective of the children, "Saplings" is "immensely readable . . . a dark inversion of the author's best-known book, the children's classic "Ballet Shoes"" ("Sunday Telegraph"). "Laurel, at eleven, was conscious of being happy. She was almost afraid of it. "I'll never be as happy again. When I'm quite old, as old as thirty, I'll come back to this bit of Easterbourne. I'll come on the same day in June and remember me now."" An insightful account of one English family's gradual disintegration during WWII. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. [Stevenage, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: 2009]
