A Shining Fragment - Hardcover
In 1939, as war approached, Doris Bigmore was a schoolteacher living with her parents in a small Suffolk town. For entertainment, the young airmen stationed at a nearby base would be bussed in on Saturday nights, and it was at a Town Hall dance that Doris met Tom English. They shared a love of the countryside and poetry, and Doris introduced Tom to the theatre. For them it was a time of peace and innocence - but it was destined to be shattered. A SHINING FRAGMENT is the heart-rending story of their tearful partings and emotional reunions as war broke out and Tom became a navigator on Wellington bombers. Nostalgic and bittersweet, Doris English's memories celebrate the airman who became her husband for so short a time - and underline the tragedy and futility of war and its aftermath.
