The Wartime Nurse

Imogen Matthews is an Oxford-based, award-winning and internationally bestselling author and journalist with a passion for forgotten stories from wartime Holland. Matthews was born in Rijswijk, Holland, to a Dutch mother and English father who moved the family to England when Imogen was very young. All her life, she listened to her mother’s stories about her life in Holland, in particular the hardships she faced during the 1944–45 'Hunger Winter', and this has had a profound impact on her writing.
