The Second World War was taking so many of their brothers far away to keep the enemy at bay.Those who escaped the daily grind of the dairy worked in the local towns as waitresses, sales-girls, or in the telephone exchange. Some studied music, dress and pattern making. Some though continued their education at the local high school - they were the lucky ones. They were able to work as bank assistants, clerks, book-keepers and receptionists.In this short story, set in the mid 20th Century in rural north-eastern NSW, Janine longed to leave the 'farm girl' image, and its expectations of marriage and employment, behind her. It means some tough choices for her but love has a strange way of bouncing back.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joyce Lange Cowen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 064567589X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780645675894\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nenge Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 50\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.10d","brand":"Joyce Lange Cowen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44410450772223,"sku":"9780645675894","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_82bc999c-1741-4a17-804f-688d0de0bcba.jpg?v=1697536282","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/achievement-joyce-lange-cowen-9780645675894","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
