Vern Thiessen's Bluebirds follows three Canadian nurses caring for wounded soldiers in 1918 France—a gripping wartime drama about friendship and resilience that hits different on a rainy night at Gottingen St.
Bluebirds by Vern Thiessen Set in Étaples, France, 1918. Nurses Christy, Maggie, and Bab have crossed oceans to care for wounded Canadian soldiers in the Great War.
