The soundtrack to their lives…

Music to take you back to Come What May

With the briefest of notes on each piece.

In a time before television and computers, the radio, music and motion pictures were a source of great joy, entertainment and solace for people.

These are the songs that wove their way into Come What May. Some of these artists weren’t alive nor the songs around at the time when the music was played or sung in the book but these are the songs and versions that were in my head.

WARNING! Spoilers…

Come What May is another emotive book, full of wonderful descriptions of the places where they are, the people within and the events. I was so saddened sometimes – but I love that in a book, one that makes events and people seem so real that I’m upset for them. Another cracking read, to savour and cherish.
