Description:
The remarkable new work of fiction from the Booker Prize-winning author of Last OrdersWastelandHere We Are and Mothering Sunday




In the aftermath of the Second World War Private Joseph Caan, a young Jewish soldier stationed in Germany, seeks the truth about lost family members; in the 1960s a father focuses on his daughter’s wedding even as the Cuban Missile Crisis brings the world to the brink of disaster; in 2001, while planes fly into the Twin Towers, a maid working for US Embassy staff in London wonders if her birth on the day of the Kennedy assassination shaped her life; and at the height of a pandemic lockdown, Dr. Cole, a retired specialist in respiratory disease, returns to work and recalls a formative childhood encounter with illness and much more. These are just a few of the challenged characters we meet in Graham Swift’s Twelve Post-war Tales.




Tender, humane, funny and moving, Swift’s latest work of fiction displays his quietly commanding ability to set the personal and the ordinary against the harsh sweep of history. It is an outstanding achievement, confirming his status as one of the great, most subtle voices of our age.

Here We Are smuggles within the pages of a seemingly commonplace tale depths of emotion and narrative complexity that take the breath away.’ The

Wide, feminine neck
Special Size: Two Pack, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Army Green
I ordered Medium, as I usually wear. I’m 5’11” 175lbs. The neck was very wide and cut semi/deep. It looked like a woman’s workout shirt. The material looks and feels nice, and other than the neck it fit true to size. I returned it because of how they fit in the neck.

Nicer than expected
Very cute and fun to wear. Band is soft and comfortable. The whole face lights up which is very convenient when you’re in a dark theater and want to know how much longer you must suffer through the show. Would highly recommend if you want something summery & fun

Timex tradition
The watch is pretty and functions great. The only thing I don't like is the light blue second hand is a bit hard to see in certain lighting. The other hands and numbers are easy to read and the band is easy to use. Nice watch with my favorite features.
