Day by A L Kennedy.
 
Alfred Day wanted his war. In its turmoil he found his proper purpose as the
tail-gunner in a Lancaster bomber; he found the wild, dark fellowship of his
crew, and - most extraordinary of all - he found Joyce, a woman to love.
But that's all gone - the war took it away. Maybe it took him, too.
 
Now, in 1949, employed as an extra in a war film that echoes his real
experiences, Day begins to recall what he would rather forget...
