Different View on a Popular Time Period

So anyone who is an avid historical fiction reader, such as myself, is aware of the ongoing WWII trend in literature right now. What I loved about the first glimpse I got of this story though is that despite being the catalyst for the animals moving in the first place, the book is really focused on the agency of women, rather than the war. I am very eager to read this, and I think it is a much needed breath of fresh air in the genre.
