"Blees 'Em All" pays tribute to the Londoners of the Blitz, revealing that they were not heroic in the conventional sense and that most regarded the Blitz as an intrusion, a nuisance to be endured. With its wealth of characters that leap off the page, this highly entertaining novel exposes the misplaced optimism, naked opportunism and matrimonial misdemenour in a comic tour de force of considerable verve, perceptiveness and period authority.
