- Synopsis
- The love lost-refound fiction narrative of Australian, Ruby Penfold. Fostered to care in the late 1960s, teen Ruby enjoys awakening emotions, but her heart is broken when the Vietnam war steals her first lover. Travelling overseas, Ruby marries Andrew in London and has two children; he is an obliging husband and father – mostly. Peace activities dominate Ruby’s life and during the new Millennium, she becomes London’s Mothers for Peace leader protesting deaths of NATO troops in the Middle East. Ruby mentors 25 year-old Ann Macintyre, an Afghanistan-war widow and during their 2011 peace protest in London, Ruby and Ann are arrested . . . this occasion introduces a surprising and delightful romantic twist into Ruby’s life.
