Beskrivelse
Suzanne O'Gorman pens a short but poignant memoir of her unusual childhood, growing up during the Second World War. Her father, Jack Randolph Charles, held a job shrouded in secrecy, which takes the family all the way to the United States of America. In Nevada, he builds a large factory that eventually evolves into a town, and his position enables him to witness the first atomic bomb tests at Los Alamos.
Back in England when the war ends, Suzanne moves to London and trains for a career she did not choose. After several jobs, she seizes the opportunity to go to Africa, where she puts down roots and finds a place she can finally call home.
