About this listen

Love, duty and true-life adventure in the shadow of the Second World War.

Christian Lamb is one of the last surviving Wren officers to have served throughout the Second World War, from Blitz ravaged London, to the important radar and operations rooms and undertaking a vital role in D Day.

Escaping both the Spanish Flu pandemic when she was born and the pandemic we are emerging from today, she has reached the impressive age of 101. Now she leads us through the story of her extraordinary life and the wartime experiences of her fellow Wrens.

Wonderful story

There was nothing to dislike or criticise in this production. The life recalled was absorbing throughout, beautifully written, excellently read, thoroughly enjoyable.

Interesting

My mother was part of the Wrens, so an interesting book. But enjoyment of the story was detracted by the intonation & inflection of the story teller's voice. This sometimes became so annoying that i was unable to listen properly to the story.
