Description
"A kind of shining goodness—the feeling that the world is better when it contains books like this.” Financial Times
Saturday, 1944. A shop in the southeast of London receives a shipment of aluminum frying pans. A crowd gathers to see the first metal cookware in years—everything had been melted down for the war effort. A moment later, the crowd vanishes. A German bomb lands right on the counter. Among the dead were little children—Alex, Vern, Val, Ben, and Joe. Who were they, and what would they have become if each of them had lived out their own life in the bubbling London of the 60s, 80s, and 90s? A conductor or a landlord, a swindler or a teacher, perhaps a prisoner? We will see their lives as they could have been—if not for that dreadful day.
