    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    From the bestselling author of The Woolworths Girls, Elaine Everest, this is the moving story of one woman's journey through the hardest trials of her life ? and how the love of friends and family will pull her through. This is the tale of Ruby, and how it all began . . .

    1905: Ruby Caselton may only be twenty-five years old but she already has the weight of the world on her shoulders. Heavily pregnant with her second child, penniless and exhausted, she is moving her family into a new home. The Caseltons left their last place when they couldn?t pay the rent, but Ruby?s husband Eddie has promised this will be a fresh start for them all. And Ruby desperately hopes that this time he will keep his word.

    With five-year-old George at her feet and her mother having a cross word for everyone and everything, life is never dull at number thirteen Alexandra Road. It doesn?t take long before Eddie loses another job and once again hits the bottle. It?s up to Ruby to hold them all together, through thick and thin. She remembers the kind, caring man Eddie once was and just can?t give up on him entirely. What she doesn?t know is that Eddie has a secret, one so dark that he can?t bear to tell even Ruby . . .

    Through Ruby?s grit and determination, she keeps food on the table and finds herself a community of neighbours on Alexandra Road. Stella, the matriarch from across the way, soon becomes a friend and confidante. She even dreams that Ruby will ditch the useless Eddie and take up with her eldest son, Frank. But when war breaks out in 1914, the heartbreaks and losses that follow will fracture their community, driving both Stella and Ruby to breaking point. Will their men ever return to them?

    'A warm, tender tale of friendship and love' ? Milly Johnson on The Woolworths Girls

    A prequel to The Woolworths Girls, A Mother Forever can also be read as a compelling novel in its own right.
