Goodreads asked Marion Reynolds:

How do you get inspired to write?

Marion Reynolds I was inspired to write this book by a photograph in my grandparents house when I was a little girl. It was very glamorous and showed him in uniform and her in a beautiful lace gown. I knew them as old, poor people who lived in a small house in Dublin. I wanted to trace their lives and the changes which they coped with.
