About This Item
Mass Market Paperback. Publisher: Tiptree Book Service | 2024 | Mass Market Paperback | 400 p. | This book is brand new. | Language: Engelska --- Information regarding the book: Readers love the new Heather Morris book! 'Absolutely brilliant book ... I recommend this book without a doubt' '[A] phenomenal 5-star novel' 'A devastating true story brought to life by Heather Morris' 'Inspiring, emotional and uplifting ... What a book!' 'I hope that every story like this can be told by someone who so obviously cares about the people involved' The phenomenal new novel, based on a true story, from the international bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz 1942. Singapore is falling to the Japanese Army. English musician Norah Chambers places her eight-year-old daughter Sally on a ship leaving Singapore, desperate to keep her safe. As the island burns, Australian nurse Nesta James joins the terrified cargo of people, including the heartbroken Norah, crammed aboard the HMS Vyner Brooke. After only two days at sea, the ship is bombarded and sunk. Nesta and Norah reach the beaches of Indonesia only to be captured and held in one of the notorious Japanese POW camps, places of starvation and brutality. But even here joy can be found, in music, where Norah's 'voice orchestra' transports the internees from squalor into light. The friendships they build with the dozens of other women in the camps will give them the hope, strength and camaraderie they need in order to stay alive. Sisters under the Rising Sun tells the story of women in war: a novel of sisterhood, bravery and resilience in the darkest of circumstances, from the multimillion-copy bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Cilka's Journey and Three Sisters. | We have this book in our store house - please allow for a couple of extra days for delivery.
