She comes home to rationing, damaged cities, unfamiliar rules, and a family who now feel like strangers. The confident, independent habits she learned in America clash with the expectations of post-war Britain, leaving her caught between two countries and uncertain where she belongs. As adults try to reshape her into the daughter they remember, Rusty’s loneliness and frustration build toward rebellion. Michelle Magorian’s moving novel explores homecoming, family separation, cultural change, and the difficult process of rebuilding relationships after war.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48387234136276,"sku":"TVJ-027640","price":5.75,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-027640-1.jpeg?v=1785336458","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/back-home-by-michelle-magorian","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
