About this listen

Best-selling author D. E. Stevenson’s charming fictional alter ego, Hester Christie - or 'Mrs Tim', as she is affectionately known to friends of her military husband - was first introduced in Mrs Tim of the Regiment, published in 1932.

In 1941, Stevenson brought Mrs Tim back in this delightful sequel, to lift spirits and boost morale in the early days of World War II. With her husband stationed in France, Hester finds plenty to keep her busy on the home front.

I really enjoyed this book and will listen to others in the series. It is the kind of book that you can read/listen to over and over again. Published in 1941, it gives an interesting insight into life in Scotland and England during the Second World War and shows how people felt at the time. There are lots of interesting details of life at that time, including the price of things. The novel is very positive with likeable characters and many humorous incidents. The narrator is excellent; she has a lovely voice and performs all the different characters very well. Sound quality is also excellent. The book contains no sex, no violence, and no bad language – it is wholesome and lovely.

Excellent – lovely relaxing book
