THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
As the world slips into the throes of war in 1939, young Maciek's once closetted existence outside Warsaw is no more. When Warsaw falls, Maciek escapes with his aunt Tania. Together they endure the war, running, hiding, changing their names, forging documents to secure their temporary lives--as the insistent drum of the Nazi march moves ever closer to them and to their secret wartime lies.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -'Ein Mann von fünfzig Jahren könnte er sein, schon leicht gebeugt, ein Mann mit freundlichem Gesicht und traurigen Augen. Er lebt verhältnismäßig angenehm in einem friedlichen Land. Er umgibt sich gern mit Büchern. Er bewundert die 'Äneis'. In ihr fand er zum erstenmal literarisch ausgedrückt, was ihn quälte: die Scham, am Leben geblieben zu sein, während seine Verwandten und fast alle anderen im Feuer umgekommen waren.' Der 1933 in Polen geborene Louis Begley erzählt die Geschichte eines jüdischen Jungen. Maciek wächst in einer begüterten polnischen Arztfamilie auf. Der Beginn des Zweiten Weltkriegs bedeutet für ihn Angst, Flucht, Verfolgung und schließlich den Verlust der Identität. 208 pp. Englisch. Seller Inventory # 9780449001172
