As her story unfolds, the immeasurable and alienating impact of two World Wars on one woman's life is unveiled, and with it a shocking revelation about her parentage...Melancholic, haunting and optimistic, Goodnight Ophelia is Penelope Famer's rich evocation of the vicissitudes of a 20th Century life and of one woman's journey to make peace with the global and personal conflicts of her past.
