Praise for Red Letter Days "Stratford's novel effortlessly walks the line between hilarious and harrowing in her account of the tribulations of the victims of the blacklist - all told from a perspective that is unique and refreshing. And I simply adored the heroines Phoebe and Hannah, crafted from Stratford's meticulous research and fabulous imagination." --Fiona Davis, national bestselling author of The Chelsea Girls " Red Letter Days is a blacklist-era game of cat and mouse that's positively Shakespearean in its witty dialogue, forged identities, banishments, unexpected romance, and even its drama within the drama. The final lightning-speed pages left me breathless." -- Kerri Maher, Author of The Girl in White Gloves "Fairly singing with tension and triumph...weaves fact and fiction into a tale that serves as entertainment, warning, reflection and homage wrapped up in one highly readable package." -- Greer Macallister, USA Today bestselling author of The Magician's Lie and Woman 99 "In this crisp novel, Stratford... effortlessly melds politics, romance, and history. This delivers on every level." -- Publishers Weekly " Red Letter Days is a look at a piece of American history told through the lens of two brave women, whose stories you won't soon forget." --PopSugar "[A] thoroughly fascinating and too-little-known story of Hannah Weinstein and her role in supporting blacklisted Americans, regardless of gender or race."-- Booklist (starred review) "Well plotted and moving, with witty characters and an unnervingly timely storyline, Red Letter Days is smart, satisfying historical fiction at its best."-- Shelf Awareness Praise for Radio Girls "Sarah-Jane Stratford's crackerjack historical novel Radio Girls smartly tunes in to the beginnings of Britain's broadcasting behemoth.... Radio Girls is a hit." --USA Today "An achievement of historical fiction so believable that you'll wonder if the author has access to a time machine....By turns funny and fascinating, Radio Girls is a triumph." -- Allison Amend, author of Enchanted Islands "Sarah-Jane Stratford's storytelling skills are on vivid display throughout, and the strong, believable, and immensely human Maisie Musgrave is the best imaginable guide to that vanished time and place." -- Joseph Wallace, author of Slavemakers "An intoxicating look inside a world of innovative new media." --Kirkus Reviews "Sparkling historical fiction." --Literary Hub "A delightfully literary historical fiction book about the early days of the BBC." --Broadly "A highly detailed narrative and well-fleshed characters set the stage for this unique, early-twentieth-century story....This is an eye-opening view of the world when women's rights were newly budding." --Historical Novels Review, "Stratford''s novel effortlessly walks the line between hilarious and harrowing in her account of the tribulations of the victims of the blacklist - all told from a perspective that is unique and refreshing.

A satisfying read with elements that are unnervingly relevant today." -- Historical Novel Society , on Red Letter Days "A vivid portrayal of artistic life during the Red Scare and the challenges women screenwriters faced in the era''s entertainment industry. It is also a witty and harrowing tale of intrigue, friendship and romance. Stratford imbues the text with lively energy and a wry voice....

Synopsis
When two brave women flee from the Communist Red Scare, they soon discover that no future is free from the past. Amid the glitz and glamour of 1950s New York, Phoebe Adler pursues her dream of screenwriting. A dream that turns into a living nightmare when she is blacklisted--caught in the Red Menace that is shattering the lives of suspected Communists. Desperate to work, she escapes to London, determined to keep her dream alive and clear her good name. There, Phoebe befriends fellow American exile Hannah Wolfson, who has defied the odds to build a career as a successful television producer in England. Hannah is a woman who has it all, and is now gambling everything in a very dangerous game--the game of hiring blacklisted writers. Neither woman suspects that danger still looms . . . and their fight is only just beginning., A striking novel about two daring women who escape McCarthy-era Hollywood for London, where they fight the injustices of the Red Scare., Pheobe Adler is forging her way as a television writer in Hollywood. But under Senator McCarthy, Phoebe finds herself blacklisted as a communist sympathizer and flees to London. While there, she meets other Americans living in exile, including ambitious producer Hannah Wolfson who hires blacklisted writers at great risk to herself and her company. Together Phoebe and Hannah successfully fight unfair bias and sexism, but danger still looms in this supposed sanctuary. And when their families and friends - their very lives - are threatened, they will have to make impossible choices.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!
