It is 1914\, and as the war draws the y oung men of Britain away to fight\, women must keep the nation running. Tw o of those women are Peggy and Maude\, twin sisters who live on a narrowbo at in Oxford and work in the bindery at the university press. Ambitious\, intelligent Peggy has been told for most of her life that her job is to bi nd the books\, not read them-but as she folds and gathers pages\, her mind wanders to the opposite side of Walton Street\, where the female students of Oxford's Somerville College have a whole library at their fingertips. Maude\, meanwhile\, wants nothing more than what she has: to spend her day s folding the pages of books in the company of the other bindery girls. Sh e is extraordinary but vulnerable\, and Peggy feels compelled to watch ove r her. Then refugees arrive from the war-torn cities of Belgium\, sending ripples through the Oxford community and the sisters' lives. \;
