Historia
In enemy-occupied Paris, as the locals go to bed starving and defeated by the war, music and laughter spills through the door of a little restaurant, crowded with German soldiers. The owner, Marianne, moves on weary feet between its packed tables, carrying plates of steaming, wholesome food for the enemy officers. Her smile is bright and sparkling, her welcome cordial. Nobody would guess the hatred she hides in her heart. That night, the restaurant closes its doors for the final time.

But when Eva arrives at Auschwitz, there is no sign of Michal and the stark reality of the camp comes crashing down upon her. As she lies heartbroken and shivering on a thin mattress, her head shaved by rough hands, she hears a whisper. Her bunkmate, Sofie, is reaching out her hand....

The tale begins in Dark Age Britain, a land where Arthur has been banished and Merlin has disappeared, where a child-king sits unprotected on the throne, where religion vies with magic for the souls of the people. It is to this desperate land that Arthur returns, a man at once utterly human and truly heroic: a man of honor, loyalty, and amazing valor; a man who loves Guinevere more passionately than he should; a man whose life is at once tragic and triumphant.

Anne Frank has long been a symbol of bravery and hope, but there were two sisters hidden in the annex, two young Jewish girls, one a cultural icon made famous by her published diary and the other, nearly forgotten. In the spring of 1959, The Diary of Anne Frank has just come to the silver screen to great acclaim, and a young woman named Margie Franklin is working in Philadelphia as a secretary at a Jewish law firm. On the surface she lives a quiet life, but Margie has a secret: a life she once lived, a past and a religion she has denied, and a family and a country she left behind.

A wonderful short listen!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the characters in it. I enjoy books set in the WW2 era and this did not disappoint. I really liked hearing a little different main subject matter in terms of Valerie sharing her life story with a complete stranger on the train. While there was still obvious atrocities by the nazis, it was not about the prison and work camps. Just a lovely story about a woman finding her identity. Although I typically like a longer book to listen to- this was just right for the story. Any longer and it would have seemed dragged out.
The narration was excellent!

Alternative Occupation Love Story
Although the story becomes a bit predictable, it presents the complexity that arises when "the enemy" is actually found to be hating the war as much as those of the occupied city of Paris. This includes a young Parisienne by the name of Mireille. The author uses both flashback and current characters to weave the tale. It is poignant and ,entertaining, without giving way to heavy philosophy. The narration is excellent.

Good but could have been great
I thought the story was good but there were so many potential side stories or twists that just didn’t happen.

Nicely told story
I really like the story a lot. I love historical fiction but most of the ones that I read are so long that it was nice to have a story that wasn’t terribly long, but was really good

Must listen
I couldn’t put this one down. I loved the story and the characters. It was a different type of WWII historical fiction. It wasn’t the same predictable story that many are. Loved it!
