Ninachka
This was a fascinating book to read. I knew nothing about the QAs before starting and learnt so much during the course of reading the book.
Some of the details are quite harrowing, though the comments made by the nurses themselves are revealingly modest about their own actions. Especially, difficult to read were the comments about the treatment meted out by the Japanese. Also, the rescue of inmates from Blsen and the prisoner of war camps.
I would recommend this as a different slant on the various books written about the Second World War, most of which have been written from a man's point of view and seldom mention the part played by women.
