The Night Watch
“[A] wonderful novel…Waters is almost Dickensian in her wealth of description and depth of character.”—Chicago Tribune
Moving back through the 1940s, through air raids, blacked-out streets, illicit partying, and sexual adventure, to end with its beginning in 1941, The Night Watch tells the story of four Londoners—three women and a young man with a past—whose lives, and those of their friends and lovers, connect in tragedy, stunning surprise and exquisite turns, only to change irreversibly in the shadow of a grand historical event.

Excellent character descx, intriguing storylines, twisting plot and endearing life lessons. Great writing. A welcoming surprise to my expectations for this fiction, with enigmatic characters and historical refs (WWII). Has history, romance, philosophy, sensuality and spark, all wrapped together. The complex lives we lead. Would def recommend.
