| Author of the Week The Postmistress is the beautifully written debut novel from Sarah Blake . Weaving together the stories of three very different women loosely tied to each other, Blake takes readers back and forth between small town America and war-torn Europe in 1940. Single, 40-year-old postmistress Iris James and young newlywed Emma Trask are both new arrivals to Franklin, Mass., on Cape Cod. While Iris and Emma go about their daily lives, they follow American reporter Frankie Bard on the radio as she delivers powerful and personal accounts from the London Blitz and elsewhere in Europe. While Trask waits for the return of her husband — a volunteer doctor stationed in England — James comes across a letter with valuable information that she chooses to hide. Blake captures two different worlds — a naïve nation in denial and, across the ocean, a continent wracked with terror — with a deft sense of character and plot, and a perfect willingness to take on bi g, complex questions, such as the merits of truth and truth-telling in wartime.
"A beautifully written, thought-provoking novel that I'm telling everyone I know to read." - Kathryn Stockett, author of The Help
