Forbidden Books in Berlin
Berlin, 1933. The night sky is lit by the glow of bonfires where forbidden books are burning. The membership of the Nazi party is growing, and Berlin is no longer a safe place for girls like young Freya.
But there is... no way out. She can only watch in horror as her beloved city perishes. Usually law-abiding, Freya is forced to make a choice: to continue being a bystander or to sacrifice herself to save the lives of others...
Los Angeles, present day. Maddie is going home to her family to recharge. Trying to completely disconnect from work, she is surprised to find a pre-war German diary among her grandfather's belongings. When Maddie opens the old book, the discovery shocks her. Thus begins a journey that will take Maddie beyond America in search of the truth about Freya and how she changed the lives of people around the world...
1. For fans of Markus Zusak's novel «The Book Thief»! A historical novel where the events of the 1930s in Nazi Germany intertwine with modern Britain.
2. The main character risks everything to fight against the Nazis burning books. Years later, in present day, her granddaughter encounters the mysteries of that desperate struggle preserved in the family diary. Books in the novel serve as a symbol of strength, freedom, and resistance, while reading becomes a bridge between generations and a key to self-identification.
3. Daisy Wood is a popular English author of historical prose: she has worked in publishing, holds a master's degree, and has spent many years studying and writing about the fates of people during times of war and change. The writer lives alternately in London and Dorset, and when
not hiding in the London Library, she can often be seen in various parks with her pointer and basset hound dogs.
