Product Description
For three years, three young girls will lie side by side, strapped onto iron frames on the veranda of a 1940s TB hospital. Just seven years old, the girls will have nothing but their shared thoughts and dreams - dreams of a home that seems as far away as heaven. Set in north Dublin against a background of strict social and religious mores, wartime restrictions and fearsome medical practice, their story is memorably and movingly told. Rich in pathos and humour, it is a story of survival and even triumph over the cruelty of their fate.
