Author: Natasha Lester
15,28 €
Rare dresses in her grandmother's house lead Australian curator Kat Jourdan to questions that family memories cannot answer. Natasha Lester links her search to wartime pilot Skye and Paris on the threshold of a new fashion era. The novel brings together a family secret, love, and women's experiences during World War II.
The story moves between England in 1939, postwar Paris, and contemporary Australia. Skye joins Britain's war effort, while Kat's discovery of Dior dresses brings her closer to her family's unknown past. Fashion intersects with the memory of war and personal relationships. The novel asks what people preserve, what they leave unspoken, and how old decisions affect the next generation. Its historical settings frame a fictional story of devotion and secrets.
