The Soldier's Return by Melvyn Bragg

Returning in 1946, from the 'Forgotten War' in Burma to Wigton in Cumbria, Sam finds little has changed in the town. But the war has changed him. His 6year old son barely remembers him, and his wife has gained a sense of independence from her wartime jobs. As all three strive to adjust, the bonds of loyalty and love are stretched to breaking point in this taut and profoundly moving novel, which captures what millions experienced in the aftermath of WWII.
