Book Haven Literary proudly announces the release of Ducky: Life Letters, a poignant memoir by Michael Dymond. This collection of letters and narrative storytelling offers an intimate glimpse into the enduring love between Donald and Phyllis Dymond, a couple separated by war yet bound by devotion.
More than a memoir, Ducky: Life Letters reveals the emotional landscape of wartime relationships. Donald and Phyllis express love, longing, and hope while facing the uncertainty of a global conflict. Reconstructed by their son, Michael Dymond, their story becomes an immersive and emotionally charged experience.
A Story Rooted in History and Devotion
Donald enlisted in the Canadian Active Forces in July 1940, driven by duty and a future with Phyllis. Their love, first kindled in 1938, flourished through hundreds of letters exchanged during training and deployment. These letters unveil their daily struggles, humor, and unwavering commitment.
Tragically, Donald’s life was cut short on April 30, 1945, just ten days before Victory in Europe Day. His letters endure as a testament to love and the sacrifices of countless soldiers and families. The book serves as a deeply personal yet universal tribute.

A Testament to Enduring Love and Sacrifice
