An incredible true story of love in the most horrifying circumstances...
Through the words of the author you feel as if Lale as an older man is telling his story directly to you. It's has been so well written that you know personal and horrific accounts are being shared, and of course you feel sad, but the author manages not to make this a tear jerker and instead there is a richness to the story which flows and somehow you are three years later!
Lale and Gita show how their love ruled everything. Lale was consistently strong and determined to help other people he didn't know. Gita and her friends had true sister-like love for each other.
I read this book in 2 days and will never forget it. It is truly special that the Afterword has been written by their son. It has made me think of all the people I meet on a daily basis and how quickly opinions can form, yet how many more stories there may be just standing at my local bus stop.
