A young reporter is sent to interview an elderly lady living in a house that was built 50 years previously. Rosie arrives at the door and then suddenly she is transported back to the 1950s, living in a house with no modern amenities in post-war austerity, and working in a chauvanistic, technology free, newspaper office. What is happening? Is she part of a reality show? Why is she there? It all seems so real. This is a well written book about life in the 1950s. The explanation is a surprise. An enjoyable, easy to read book.
