The Sunday Times Bestseller
Peter Hennessy
On Boxing Day 1962,
when Juliet Nicolson was just eight years old,
the snow began to fall.
It did not stop for ten weeks.
The threat of nuclear war had reached its terrifying height with the recent Cuban Missile Crisis,
unemployment was on the rise,
and yet, underneath the frozen surface,
new life was beginning to stir.
From poets to pop stars, shopkeepers to schoolchildren, and her own family's experiences,
Juliet Nicolson traces the hardship of that frozen winter and the emancipation that followed.
That spring, new life was unleashed, along with freedoms we take for granted today.
An absolutely mesmerising book
