LWD Book Club ~ April 2019

April 1, 2019 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

It is said that you can’t judge a book by its cover but I must admit that was exactly what drew me to this month’s LWD Book Club selection. Lilacs are my favorite flower which was reason enough for me to take a peek when I saw this at our local library book sale. The time period and setting sealed the deal. I’m truly looking forward to reading Lilac Girls this month!

Lilac Girls: A Novel

 

Lilac Girls

New York socialite Caroline Ferriday has her hands full with her post at the French consulate and a new love on the horizon. But Caroline’s world is forever changed when Hitler’s army invades Poland in September 1939—and then sets its sights on France.

An ocean away from Caroline, Kasia Kuzmerick, a Polish teenager, senses her carefree youth disappearing as she is drawn deeper into her role as courier for the underground resistance movement. In a tense atmosphere of watchful eyes and suspecting neighbors, one false move can have dire consequences.

For the ambitious young German doctor, Herta Oberheuser, an ad for a government medical position seems her ticket out of a desolate life. Once hired, though, she finds herself trapped in a male-dominated realm of Nazi secrets and power.

The lives of these three women are set on a collision course when the unthinkable happens and Kasia is sent to Ravensbrück, the notorious Nazi concentration camp for women. Their stories cross continents—from New York to Paris, Germany, and Poland—as Caroline and Kasia strive to bring justice to those whom history has forgotten.

    I can see why you’d want to read that one… It sounds fascinating. I might read this one myself.
