Book/DVD: The Guernsey Literary And Potato Peel Pie Society: Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows

In 1946, Juliet Ashton - writer of witty newspaper columns during the war - sits at her desk stumped for ideas of what to write next. Out of the blue she receives a letter from Dawsey Adams, of Guernsey, who happens to have acquired a book Juliet once owned. They begin a correspondence. Dawsey is a member of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and soon other members are writing to Juliet: gawky Isola, who makes potions; Eben, the Shakespeare-loving fisherman and Will Thisbee, chef of the famous potato peel pie. She comes to know them and about their lives under German occupation and entranced by their stories, Juliet decides to visit the island and unwittingly turns her life upside down.
