'During the Second World War many of Toowoomba's boarding schools were converted to hospitals. The writer Frances Rouse explores the imagined cross-generational relationships between the middle-aged narrator, her younger self as a 60s teenager and a young soldier-patient in the 1940s.
These imaginary observations are set in what was once a hospital ward for wounded soldiers and which has now has become a school gymnasium.'
