Product Description
This work discusses hope, struggle and defiance in the face of overwhelming odds. This is a compelling tale of love and courage in dangerous and desperate times. 'Krakow, the City of Kings, was no longer mine. I had become a foreigner in the place I had always called home.' It is the year 1939. Overnight, Jewish nineteen-year-old Emma Bau's world is turned upside down when Germany invades Poland. And after only six weeks of marriage, her husband Jacob, a member of the Resistance, is forced to flee. Escaping the ghetto, Emma assumes a new, Christian identity and finds work at Nazi headquarters. As secretary to the charismatic Kommandant Richwalder, Emma vows to use her unique position to gather intelligence for the Resistance, by any means necessary. Poignant, affecting and gripping, "Kommandant's Girl" is the beautifully written story of one woman's struggle to survive one of the darkest periods in human history.

Quite a good story and I may try her next one but generally I think I prefer non-fiction written by those involved at this time - probably because those pieces are just so shocking and moving that it is hard for others to put themselves in the same place.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

This will be released at Hudsons Coffee House at the 2-4pm meeting (usually 4th Saturday of the month).

If you have found this I would be very interested in finding out what you think of the book and what you do with it once you have finished it. If you join bookcrossing you will also be able to get track of this book and others. I look forward to hearing from you!

Caught at this month's meet-up.

A thought provoking book.
