After months of bombing raids in London, twelve-year-old Olive Bradshaw and her little brother Cliff are evacuated to the Devon coast.

Desperate to be helpful, Olive becomes his post-girl, carrying secret messages (as she likes to think of the letters) to the villagers. But Olive has a secret of her own. Her older sister Sukie went missing in an air raid, and she’s desperate to discover what happened to her. And then she finds a strange coded note which seems to link Sukie to Devon, and to something dark and impossibly dangerous.

Nostalgia has never felt so current. As we turn to past decades for inspiration and clues to help us navigate the cultural labyrinth of social media, this book allows readers to discover the 1980s afresh, from design and art styles to iconic photos, fashion trends, music videos and digital breakthroughs. Like a perfectly curated mixtape, this era defining book transports you back in time to the social, political and technological tipping point of recent history.The 1980s were a time of bold exploration, dazzling creativity, inspiring unity and stark division. Technology, media, gender roles, race, sexuality, geopolitics, climate, our place in the universe. You name it: the 1980s saw almost all aspects of humanity challenged, upturned, and reimagined.Skip forward from the first space shuttle to the first episode of The Simpsons, from Jean-Michel Basquiat to Gordon Gekko, or from shoulder pads to smiley faces. This immersive visual narrative presents a fascinating ecosystem of influence between high and low culture that makes sense of the decade's recurring motifs, trends, and themes, from lush tropicana to neo-noir dystopia. Start with the explosion of breakdancing and boom boxes on the subway, the beeps and bloops of new electronic game consoles, and Jane Fonda's pastel leotards and legwarmers.Move on to the savage materialism of the wolves of Wall Street, the synchronized moves of the zombies in the Thriller video, and tailored Armani suits. Witness the rise of a new and assertive gay culture and explore the darker corners of the club scene. Remember the silent rise of the AIDS epidemic, the impact of Live Aid concerts, and the fight against apartheid.You'll see how the reverberation of cultural debates around the globe reaches decibels that can break down barriers and prompt change, from Madrid's La Movida to the Soviet perestroika and the fall of the Berlin Wall.

This edition contains Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking Glass. It is illustrated throughout by Sir John Tenniel, whose drawings for the books add so much to the enjoyment of them. Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, the Red Queen and the White Rabbit all make their appearances, and are now familiar figures in writing, conversation and idiom. So too, are Carroll's delightful verses such as 'The Walrus and the Carpenter' and the inspired jargon of that masterly Wordsworthian parody, 'The Jabberwocky'.
