I listened to them all. Beautifully written, but her world and mine don't overlap much! What on earth does she do all day, given they have one child at boarding school, she doesn't have a paid job and they have a lot of paid domestic help? Shopping is the only activity mentioned. In one of the last episodes she seems to be coming back from a holiday somewhere German-speaking, without husband or children. I wondered if it was perhaps for health reasons.
I can see the link with the film, but Hollywood made a lot of changes, for understandable reasons, given it was propaganda to prod the US into entering WW2.
