Just watching life after life drama on bbc 2, I loved the book by Kate Atkinson. Made me think of something else I read but can't remember what it is called. It is set half in London during the blitz and half in Germany in the war. I remember people being in the cellar and a flood drowned them.....awful. The main character was a women and she couldn't get back to London as war broke out. It plays out two different stories of how her life would be. Does anyone know what I am talking about?!? It's really annoying me as I can't remember the title. Was it another one of kate Atkinsons?

Atonement?

Sounds familiar. Could it be Everyone Brave is Forgiven by Chris Cleave? Or possibly Noonday by Pat Barker? Noonday is the third in her Life Class trilogy.

I haven't watched Life after Life so don't know where it is up to - are you sure it's not Life after Life but that you haven't got up to that part yet?

The female character in one life is hitlers 'girl friends' when in Germany. The plot goes back and fourth between Germany and how it would be in the blitz in London. Argh! It's so bugging me, but I just can't work out what it is!
