From Hope to Betrayal by Geoffrey Hayward
From Hope to Betrayal transports you to Rishton, a small Lancashire cotton town, in the years between the Great Wars. Inspired by true events, the heroes of this story are a group of demobbed comrades returning home from the war, full of hope for the future. Hope is an unusual thing. It can pull you out of your darkest moments, push you towards your ultimate potential, and even convince you to invest in a lost cause. In a time of turbulence and uncertainty, the people of Rishton search for meaning, and in the midst of war, pain, and hunger, hope drives them on. But the problem with hope is that it can open you up to betrayal. This story of a community explores grief, political awakenings, and pulling yourself up when life has other ideas, but the most important message is, even when it feels insurmountable, hope can always help you beat the odds. From Hope to Betrayal shows you the intricate experiences of the people of the working class, whilst giving you a taste of the people in power, and the many faces of humanity…SKU | Unavailable |
