Book
Tomorrow Is a Stranger
First published 1987
Two young teenagers experience the German occupation of Guernsey after remaining in the Channel Islands rather than being evacuated to mainland Britain. Restrictions, rumours, secret news and encounters with occupying troops alter school, family life and friendship.
Trease bases the children’s experiences on documented incidents from the only British territory occupied by Nazi forces. The novel presents resistance and accommodation through civilian choices, showing how ordinary relationships were tested by shortages, surveillance and uncertainty.
