Description

At the end of the Second World War, Matthew Wallingham returns to his family home, blinded by his injuries and uncertain about his future.

There he finds his father ill, his mother obviously unhappy, and his brother, who has made a success of running the farm on the family's estate during the war years, resentful that Matthew should think he can now offer help.

Forced to realise that his plans for the future are not going to work, Matthew starts to look for a new career.

He finds himself becoming dependent on Liz - his nurse and, increasingly, the focus of all his thoughts and hopes.

But Liz herself has a shadow hanging over her that will bring a terrifying violence into the Wallingham's family life... Set in the aftermath of the Second World War, A House Divided encompasses the social change taking place and the pains and pleasures of the brave new world of peace.
