In John Murrell's "Waiting for the Parade," five Canadian women deal with their anxieties about World War II through courage, tension, humor and a little music.
Marta, a German immigrant, combats prejudice and social isolation; Eve, a young school teacher, is unsettled by those who champion war (including her husband); Margaret, a God-fearing mother, is afraid she has lost her boys to war in more ways than one; Catherine, a young woman new to the workforce, struggles with the uncertainty of her husband's fate; and Janet, the bossy organizer, is obsessed with volunteering for the war effort activities.
