Books by Inez Holden

This remarkable novel about wartime life and work is a companion to Blitz Writing (2019), Handheld Press's edition of Inez Holden's novella Night Shift (1941) and her wartime diaries It Was Different At The Time (1943). This edition includes three pieces of Holden's long-form journalism, detailing wartime life.

Emerging out of the 1940-1941 London Blitz, the drama of these two short works by Inez Holden, a novel and a memoir, comes from the courage and endurance of ordinary people met in the factories, streets and lodging houses of a city under bombardment.
