The Red Tunic, Paperback / softback Book

The Red Tunic Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

History and gender are intertwined in this fast-paced arresting account of the First World War and its devastating impact on familial and romantic bonds. As headstrong as her twin is gentle, Nina has never fit the womanly mould society expects of her.

Alfie and Nina Mullins have always relied on their shared world of hope and make-believe for comfort, but as the pressure on Alfie to prove himself at the Front mounts, Nina is presented with more possibility than she had ever imagined and the two are pushed in wildly different directions. Coming of age as the First World War breaks out, the Mullins twins’ fates are inextricably interlinked with the turmoil of conflict in this fascinating exploration of gender roles and the extremes to which war pushes us.
