The Children's War, Paperback / softback Book

The Children's War Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In 1939 a young girl sits alone in a station waiting room in Marseilles.

Half-Jewish Ilse has been sent out of Nazi Germany to safety in Morocco by her mother.

But her journey takes her back to France, where she cannot escape the Nazi occupation.

Blown about by circumstances beyond her control, she must grow up alone in a demi-monde of refugees, whores and freedom fighters. In Germany, Nicolai struggles against his destiny in the Hitler Youth.

His only comfort is the friendship of Ilse's mother, who works as a nanny in his affluent household. The war eats up their youth. Though hope grows in France, a dark tableau is unfolding in Germany, and this reluctant soldier and the brave young girl must fight for their survival.
