I did not finish this book because I felt I had read it before. Does anyone know if it was published under another name?

Really enjoyed this. About a Jewish family who live in Poland and go into hiding to escape the Nazis. This is based on a true story.

I was given this book as a gift for Christmas. The book is about the war, yes. But it isn’t about Auschwitz. It’s about a Polish woman who grew up learning one thing and through the greatly incomprehensible, discovered life could be something else all together. People she’d laughed with and been akin to, suddenly wanting nothing to do with her or anyone of her religion. And yes, worse still who would give them up to the German invaders, knowing they would be executed. Where can they go? Where wil I was given this book as a gift for Christmas.

An interesting idea. Set in Poland just before and during the Second World War. Makes a few good points about survival and the evils of collaboration, but I found the storyline sentimental and the dialogue pure exposition.

Padded out Rather predictable and repetitive. It would have been more interesting if a account of the pArtisan fighters was Hicks here
