Liza's England by Pat Barker
"Pat Barker's writing is so sure, and her characters so vital, that a powerful story emerges, honest, grim but often funny, and always engrossing." -Newsday
In Liza's England, Liza Garrett is the first child in town born in the twentieth century--whose life in many ways mirrors the turmoil of England itself. The tough, severe, but very real and recognizable world of women is put to the most strenuous tests, and Liza, at eighty-four, is proof that loyalty, fortitude and humor survive.
With novels like Union Street, Regeneration (shortlisted for Britain's famous Booker Prize and named one of the four finest novels of 1992 by the New York Times), The Eye in the Door (winner of the 1993 Guardian fiction prize), The Ghost Road (winner of the 1995 Booker Prize), and Noonday, Pat Barker has cemented his place among the top contemporary British writers. Pat Barker is an English author who lives in Durham.
