Delderfield R. F.

    Ronald Frederick Delderfield was een populaire Engelse romanschrijver en dramaturg wiens werken vaak voor televisie werden bewerkt en nog steeds veel gelezen worden. Zijn historische romans en series volgen vaak jonge mannen die terugkeren uit de oorlog, waarbij hun leven in Engeland wordt geschetst en de auteur de breedte van de Engelse geschiedenis kan weergeven. Door deze verhalen duikt Delderfield diep in de sociale geschiedenis en verkent hij de periode van het Edwardiaanse tijdperk tot de vroege jaren zestig, met aandacht voor maatschappelijke veranderingen en individuele ervaringen in die transformerende tijd.
