Victoria Purman is an Adelaide-based author whose books tend to be on the automatic-buy list for many readers - and with good reason.
'The Nurses' War' is Victoria's latest novel - released earlier this year by HarperCollins Australia. A stunning examination of the battle fought by Australian nurses against despair and death amid the carnage and bloodshed of World War 1.
Such a compelling, insightful and poignant read, I simply had to chat with Victoria about it.
