In 1946, Juliet, a young and accomplished female writer, received a letter from Guernsey in the English Channel. It was written by a pig farmer who had never known Dawsey. The letter said: "I know you because I have an old book, Charles Lamb’s "Ilya Prose Collection", with your name and address on it. During the German occupation, there was not much to do here, Lamb The writing made me gimmick.” Because there is no bookstore in Guernsey, Dawsey asked Juliet to provide the address of the London bookstore. He wanted to buy another book, Shakespeare’s Tales by the same author. Juliet bought the book by herself and mailed it. As soon as she went back and forth, the two began to communicate. Juliet heard that the literary society there, the "Potato Skin Pie Club" had a peculiar story, and couldn't wait to head to Guernsey. In the process of close contact between Juliet and the members of the club, the story of Elizabeth, the founder of the club, gradually surfaced in the years of World War II

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society quotes
-
Juliet Ashton: [Writing] Dear Mr. Adams, I am so pleased your letter found me and that my book found you. Perhaps there is some secret sort of homing instincts in books that brings them to their perfect readers. How delightful if that were true.
-
Sidney Stark: We have to write about them.
Juliet Ashton: I can't. I promised I wouldn't.
Sidney Stark: I realize that Juliet. But this is your story to tell. As sure as I am sitting here. And you will not be right until you do... Now, Elizabeth for better or worse, couldn't help but follow her heart. You must do the same.
Juliet Ashton: I am afraid. What if I am not a good enough writer?
Sidney Stark: She doubts. She doesn't believe. She craves being taken seriously, but then, she won't do that for herself.
