ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Transcription" by Kate Atkinson follows Juliet Armstrong's journey through the tumultuous years of World War II and beyond. Recruited into MI5, Juliet becomes entangled in a web of deception and espionage, tasked with transcribing secret conversations of suspected Nazi sympathizers.

 

Years later, as a producer at the BBC, Juliet's past resurfaces, threatening to expose the secrets she has long tried to bury. Confronted by figures from her past and receiving threatening messages, Juliet is forced to confront the consequences of her wartime actions. The story explores themes of identity, betrayal, and the moral ambiguities of wartime.
