Overview:
The Dilly's Story Series brings together three family sagas by Sunday Times bestselling author Rosie Goodwin, following one woman's journey through heartbreak, secrets and hope in early twentieth-century England. Perfect for fans of Catherine Cookson, this brand-new paperback set combines emotional storytelling with historical detail, exploring class, motherhood and resilience. Whether building your saga collection or gifting a treasured author, this set offers moving reading across three unforgettable instalments.
About the Books:
The trilogy opens with Dilly's Sacrifice, in which Dilly, unable to feed her newborn during hard times, makes the heartbreaking decision to give her baby daughter to the wealthy Farthing family. Set against the First World War, the story follows the effects of this act on both families, weaving loss, loyalty and enduring love. In Dilly's Lass, years have passed and old secrets resurface when the daughter Dilly gave away returns home, now a mother herself, forcing buried truths into the light and testing family bonds across generations. The trilogy concludes with Dilly's Hope, as Dilly, now a widow, draws on those around her to find peace with the past while facing new challenges with grit and warmth. Across all three books, Goodwin's writing is distinguished by emotional honesty, a vivid sense of place in working-class Britain, and richly drawn characters who feel entirely real. Readers praise the series for balancing heartbreak with hope, offering a gripping story and a genuine window into the social history of the period, including class divides, wartime hardship and the changing roles of women. This is storytelling that entertains while it educates, ideal for readers who want a satisfying saga that lingers long after the final chapter.
