A Lily of the Field is a captivating historical thriller by John Lawton, set between 1934 and 1948. It follows the lives of Meret Voytek, a gifted cellist in Vienna, and Dr. Karel Szabo, a Hungarian physicist interned on the Isle of Man, as their paths cross amid the chaos of World War II. Moving through various landscapes—from Vienna to Auschwitz and postwar London—Lawton masterfully weaves their stories together against the backdrop of a tumultuous era, exploring themes of displacement and resilience. This compelling narrative is heralded as Lawton's finest work yet, rich in historical accuracy and literary depth.
