This book was riveting! I loved the format and, since I am a "new" history buff, I found that learning more about the time period in which this story took place to be eye-opening. I will not spoil any of the plot. That is all I will say except to mention that we are very fortunate to live in a civil society. How long can that last...?
Well written, heart-felt and thought-provoking. Not for children under 12, some sad realities that they may linger and cause them to feel vulnerable.
I will find the author's name - she is French.
I especially liked the alternating chapters narrated by two women decades apart. I'm looking forward to reading de Rosnay's latest novel, A Secret Kept.
