BACK COVER REVIEW

Brilliantly paced, rich and exciting in narrative, The Dreaming Suburb, Volume I of The Avenue, is an extraordinary novel of people whose lives are intertwined in the years between the two wars... Jim Carver - A tough, resolute war veteran, he returns from the trenches to build a better life for his family on the Avenue. Archie Carver - Jim's oldest son, smart, ruthless, he has a quick eye for financial profits and beautiful women. Esme Fraser - Young and handsome, he finds that no matter how much he tries, he can't escape the passion he feels for a sensual, amoral woman. Elaine Frith - Beautiful and ruthless, she uses her charms to snare the man she thinks will give her wealth. Ted Hartnell - Dashing, talented, he finds himself driven by the lure of the new jazz music and goes on to fame in show business. But their lives are soon to feel the threat of Hitler, and the Nazi bombs that fall on the beautiful London street are the horrible clarion call to war. And all the hopes, dreams and lives of the people on the Avenue are forged to a fighting force to defend all that they hold dear.
