<p><b>''Fascinating '' Elizabeth Day</b><br><b><br>''Finally, a book that is proving very therapeutic in these difficult times... Full of doubt, fear, anger and rueful comedy, they give the lie to the idea that the Brits maintained a stiff upper lip, but it''s immensely consoling to know that our forebears sometimes thought that they were living through the end times but survived to enjoy better and brighter days.'' Jonathan Coe, <i>The Times</i></b><br><b><br>''With 34 million of us in Tier 3, these Mass Observation diaries have an added fascination: it''s impossible to read them without coming across parallels on almost every page, people''s characters revealing themselves under wartime restrictions just as they do under Covid ones.'' <i>The Times</i></b><br><br><b>''A great book - such a good read.'' Jeremy Vine</b><br><b><br>''Brown''s book features an eclectic selection from the wartime years and is full of fascinating and sometimes surprising insights.'' <i>Mail on Sunday</i></b>
