Description

'A wonderful new talent' Nick HornbyGermany, 1939. Sieglinde lives in the affluent ignorance of middle-class Berlin.

Erich is an only child living a lush rural life, aware that he is shadowed by strange, unanswered questions.

Both children watch as their parents become immersed in the puzzling mechanisms of power. Drawn together as Germany’s hope for a glorious future begins to collapse, the children find temporary refuge in an abandoned theatre amidst the rubble of Berlin.

The days they spend there together will shape the rest of their lives. Winner of the New Zealand Book Award for Fiction
