Özet

Brought to you by Penguin.
A page-turning and evocative novel set in 1950s London from the author of That Green Eyed Girl.
West London, 1958. 73 Dove Street is a shabby house in a shabby street.
But this boarding house’s attic room suits newcomer Edie Budd very well.
It’s somewhere to hide.

Tommie, on the second floor, is up in Soho every night.
There’s a man she’s pursuing –
whether he wants her or not.

Landlady Phyllis has thrown out her cheating husband.
She’s burned his belongings in the street.
Sometimes there’s no going back.

Three survivors living under one roof.
Each alone nursing their secret hurts – and hopes.
Because opening your heart could save or destroy you . . .

Touching, entertaining, hopeful. A vivid sense of time, place, people's attitudes and fragilities
Psychologically astute and emotionally absorbing, this is a heartfelt read
73 Dove Street is a pacy and evocative account of the struggles facing women of that era
Gripping . . . Julie Owen Moylan vividly recreates drab, grey postwar London and her characters are convincing to the end
From the Rivoli Ballroom to the seedy nightlife of Soho, the characters leap off the page in this compelling mystery
An incredibly vivid rendering of post-war London and the complicated lives of three woman whose fates intersect at a boarding house as they seek to take control of their own destinies. This was an engrossing read; emotional, immersive and utterly absorbing (Jennifer Saint, Sunday Times bestselling author of Ariadne)
A corker. It's the story of three working class women in 1950's London. It's so evocative, you can *smell* the gas fires, the lard, the perfume, the talc, the gin. It's bleakly honest about women's lot at the time (not so very long ago) and the tale is deftly woven. I loved how the strands came together, very satisfying (Kate Sawyer, author of The Stranding)
A wonderfully evocative, immersive novel that brings 50s London to life, from the smog and the nightlife to attitudes towards women. Julie Owen Moylan excels in creating female characters who the reader cares about. As the friendship between these three unlikely women grows, so does their hope for a better future. It's a vivid, absorbing and ultimately uplifting read
A vivid and propulsive story of three women and three dangerous secrets, 73 Dove Street so brillaintly and evocatively captures Soho in the 50s that I really feel I was there (Sophie Irwin, bestseslling author of The Lady's Guide to Fortune Hunting)
I loved it even more than Julie's debut That Green Eyed Girl. Soho in the 50s is brilliantly done, as are the female characters. Brava Julie! (Georgina Moore, author of The Garnett Girls)

Easy reading - set in 1950s London three women connect at the same lodging house. Men are the rather stereotypical nasty characters in the book, it’s all a bit one dimensional but the strong female characters keep you interested

Enjoyable and vivid
