A 3 part story consisting of a romance set in the 1920s between a sheltered Catholic boy and a young cabaret performer from two very different walks of life, the coming-of-age story of an upper-class boy's naïve idea of war being tarnished during WWII and how he learns to reconnect with his passions, and a dream a woman has about her life before peacefully dying. Basket of Roses is also available on AO3 NOTE: Pay attention to the dates mentioned. I can see how the story would seem too fast-paced if you don't look at the dates. ⚠️ this story contains implied sexual abuse, implied underage sex work, descriptions of death and gore, and attempted suicide. Please remember that before reading. Silly quiz!: https://www.opinionstage.com/page/fc764fb7-27e7-4caf-ac07-32a0d1a3f5a3
