After Romania enters the war on the side of the Axis powers, the Pringle couple rushes from Bucharest to Greece as part of a group of refugees made up of high-ranking officials, Russian white émigrés, journalists, and swindlers. But in Athens, the spouses will face a new challenge no less harsh than the war spreading across Europe. Olivia Manning’s keen observations about love, marriage, and friendship amid a historical catastrophe come together into a panorama of dramatic circumstances of a life that is damaged—and a living testimony to the era.
