To all the fans of “the boy in the striped pyjamas”, this is another heart breaking, but at the same time heart warming book. Brigitta is a world war survivor Jew that manages to sneak her way into the UK after the holocaust. She behaves like a well educated young woman and easily enchants everyone she meets. Used to run and trust no one, she finds it hard to fit it in a country where she’s supposed to feel safe and carries on keeping a deep personal secret.
Easy reading, you’ll be left wondering whether she ever manages to find the pair to her grey glove and dying to know who this mysterious young lady happens to be.
It also turns out to be far from depressing, and an emotional story of love, freedom and a challenge to the 40’s.
