Leonards War by Alan Sillitoe
Leonard had fought in the Great War, he had "done his bit" and earned the right to peace and quiet when the bombs started falling in World War II. He was 46 and a widower. That was until he met Sophie - big, vivacious Sophie, who was to change his life. Sillitoe is also the author of "Snowstop".Alan Sillitoe was born in 1928 and left school at 14 to work in various factories. He began writing after four years in the RAF, and lived for six years in France and Spain. His first stories were printed in the ‘Nottingham Weekly Guardian’. In 1958 ‘Saturday Night and Sunday Morning’ was published and ‘The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner’, which won the Hawthornden prize for Literature, came out the following year. Both these books were made into films.
