520    Set immediately after the end of WWII, Freya explores the 
       lives and friendship of two british females at a time 
       where gender roles were changing in England.It begins on 
       May 8th, 1945. The streets of London are alive with VE-Day
       celebrations. In the crowd, twenty-year-old Freya Wyley 
       meets eighteen-year-old Nancy Holdaway. Freya's acerbic 
       wit and free-wheeling politics complement Nancy's gentle, 
       less self-confident nature, and what begins on that 
       eventful day in history is the story of a devoted and 
       competitive friendship that spans two decades.This 
       heralded novel follows the irrepressible lives of these 
       young women. As Freya chooses journalism and Nancy 
       realizes her ambitions as a novelist, their friendship 
       explores the nuances of sexual, emotional and professional
       rivalries. They are not immune to the sting of betrayal 
       and the tenderness of reconciliation.Beneath the 
       relentless thrum of changing times are the eternal battles
       fought by women in pursuit of independence and the search 
       for love. Stretching from the war haunted halls of Oxford 
       and the Nuremburg trials to the cultural transformations 
       of the early 1960s, Freya presents the portraits of 
       extraordinary women taking arms against a sea of political
       and personal tumult. Anthony Quinn has created an 
       immersive story of female friendship and the self-
       discoveries that reveal the mysteries of the human heart.
