I loved this book! I first read it years ago when it was first published and came across it recently while I was browsing through the Amazon site. It was so long ago that I couldn't really remember any of the details and it was like reading it for the first time. Following the exploits of Dulcie, Thea and Primmy has been a joy, Sarah Harrsion has a wonderful way of bringing her characters to life, so much so, that you find you really want to find out how it is all going to end. Having read Sebastian Foulkes' Birdsong recently I can say that Flowers of the Field is far superior and if anyone is deciding whether or not to give this book a try - just pop it in your shopping basket, you won't be disappointed!
