books0977:Mrs. Fischer’s War. Henrietta Leslie. London: Jarrolds Publishers. First edition. Original dust jacket. Scarce novel by this Jewish author and suffragist. “It is easy to believe in the pre-War happiness of Mrs. Fischer, her son, and German husband. It is possible to believe in their extreme casualness as they make holiday in Germany just before the War. This casualness resulted in Carl Fischer’s half deliberate, half intentional disappearance from the train which took him and his wife towards England. All Mrs. Fischer’s doubts and misery over her husband’s disappearance, and all the unkind treatment that she receives from English friends in her own country are believable, too.” -- source link
