About While She Starved
Fern Burke's husband, Edwin Smith is supporting both households, his own and that of his sister-in-law.

During the famine, Vera and her two children stay comfortably in Edwin's city home, eating meat buns, while Fern and her children starve to death in silence. Fortunately, Fern has been given a second chance at life. This time, she won't suffer quietly…
