<div>âEuro²<i>The Evening Chorus</i> serenades people brutally marked by war, yet enduring to live âEuro" and relish âEuro" the tiny pleasures of another day. With her trademark prose âEuro" exquisitely limpid âEuro" Humphreys convinces us of the birdlike strength of the powerless." âEuro" Emma Donoghue<br><br>Downed during his first mission, James Hunter is taken captive as a German POW. To bide the time, he studies a nest of redstarts at the edge of camp. Some prisoners plot escape; some are shot. And then, one day, James is called to the KommandantâEuros office.<br><br>Meanwhile, back home, JamesâEuros new wife, Rose, is on her own, free in a way she has never known. Then, JamesâEuros sister, Enid, loses everything during the Blitz and must seek shelter with Rose. In a cottage near Ashdown forest, the two women jealously guard secrets, but form a surprising friendship. Each of these characters will find unexpected freedom amid warâEuros privations and discover confinements that come with peace.<i>The Evening Chorus </i>is a beautiful, astonishing examination of love, loss, escape, and the ways in which the intrusions of the natural world can save us.<br><br>âEuro²<i>The Evening Chorus</i> sparkles." âEuro"Jo Baker<br><br>âEuro²<i>A</i> poised, lyrical novel about the griefs of war, written with poetic intensity of observation." âEuro"Helen Dunmore<br><br>âEuro²This riveting novel is a song. Listen." âEuro"Richard Bausch<br><br>www.hhumphreys.com<br><br> </div><br>
