"Based on letters, documents, interviews and on-th-ground research in Germany and Poland, the novel follows a young aspiring writer, Maria Scholz, from the time she arrives in Berlin in 1933 and meets sculptor Hermann Blumenthal...."

I started this book a few years ago and may even finish it one day. Its quite harrowing in parts and I needed some escapism at the time.

Released at the Espress Yourself Cafe.

Picked this book up at a 'mini-meetup' in Darfield today! It was lovely meeting MarcieNZ & Otakuu today! :-) I'll journal this book again once it's been read....which had better be THIS year cos it's too heavy to take back to Aus!!

WELL.....this book DID come back to Australia with me after all! LOL! It finally got read the other day! An interesting read - not as gripping as I'd first hoped but still a reasonable read. Will now pass it along 'somewhere' so it can continue it's journey! :)

enjoy! :)
