Author's Comments
In a February 12, 2010 interview[2] Connie Willis said:
What are Blackout and All Clear about? They’re about Dunkirk and ration books and D-Day and V-1 rockets, about tube shelters and Bletchley Park and gas masks and stirrup pumps and Christmas pantomimes and cows and crossword puzzles and the deception campaign. And mostly the book’s about all the people who “did their bit” to save the world from Hitler -- Shakespearean actors and ambulance drivers and vicars and landladies and nurses and WRENs and RAF pilots and Winston Churchill and General Patton and Agatha Christie -- heroes all.
Critical reception
Julie Phillips of The Village Voice describes All Clear as "neither tragedy nor comedy, but a mystery story with touches of grief and slapstick."[3]
