Synopsis from amazon.co.uk: "It is late June and the summer of 1940 is about to become the myth that will define a generation. When Len Westbourne, an inexperienced fighter pilot falls in love with Stella Gardam, a radar operator with a far more worldly attitude, they are all too aware that their time may be short as the War becomes an epic struggle between the Luftwaffe and the RAF - The Battle of Britain. Told in intimate, alternate chapters from the perspectives of Len and Stella, That Summer matures into a breathtaking novel: a classic love story vividly evoking life during wartime."

It took me a while to read the book.What I found difficult at first where the short alternate chapters. The book is written in the I form and it took me by surprise who was speaking when. But when I got used to it I did like the story very much although it was very sad at some points. But that is war for you.
