Description
Step into the hopeful, eccentric world of post-war Britain in Our Noble Selves, a witty and compelling novel by Kate Atkinson.
It’s the summer of 1951, and the Festival of Britain promises a brighter future. War reporter Harry Flynn, searching for redemption and a way back to journalism, joins a motley crew preparing the celebration. But when a date disappears and Harry becomes the last person known to have seen her, his fresh start turns into a mystery. With the help of sharp-witted thirteen-year-old Veronica and her scruffy terrier, Mrs Betty, he sets out to uncover the truth.
Praised for its clever plotting, spry pace and memorable characters, this beautifully illustrated novel is a delightful blend of mystery, humour and British eccentricity.
