Description

November 1944. A German rocket strikes London and five young children are atomised in an instant. Here are the futures they might have known, had they experienced the unimaginable changes of the twentieth century - futures that illuminate the miraculous in the everyday, and the preciousness of life itself. 'My god he can write. One of the best opening chapters and closing chapters you'll ever read.' - Richard Osman
