Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. A dishonest,reckless depiction of the events of the Holocaust. The author takes historical fact and turns it into an adventure and story of romance. It is very unsettling that a book this popular will tell people an incorrect representation of what really happened. The author should feel ashamed. ( ) Setting: Krakow, Poland, 1942 This is a story about 2 girls: one of them Jewish. Sadie and her family are forced to hide in a sewer to escape the roundup of the Jews. There is another Jewish family also hiding with them. One day while Sadie is hiding by a grate, Ella happens to see her. The two girls become friends with Ella trying to help the Jews by bringing them as much food as possible. While giving this book 5 stars, there are some unanswered questions: How did they cook? It had to have been dark down there. How did they get around without any light? This was a great read. Would highly recommend. 1942. Sadie Gualt tiene dieciocho años y vive con sus padres en el güeto de Cracovia. El dÃa que los nazis destruyen el güeto, Sadie y sus padres tienen que buscar refugio en los peligrosos túneles de las alcantarillas. Un dÃa, mirando a través de una rejilla, Sadie ve a una chica de su edad comprando flores. Elle Stepanek es una polaca que tiene una vida de relativa facilidad y comodidad, gracias a su madrastra, que se ha convertido en colaboracionista de los alemanes. Mientras está comprando en un mercadillo percibe un breve destello de algo moviéndose tras una reja de alcantarilla. Se da cuenta de que es una chica que se esconde. Elle empieza a ayudar a Sadie y ambas se hacen amigas, pero, mientras los peligros de la guerra se acercan más y más a sus vidas, se verán abocadas a colisionar y a ponerlas a prueba frente a un destino abrumador. This was an interesting story and would probably be a great story for teens interested in historical fictions as the two main characters are under 20 and there are no gratuitous sex scenes or vulgar language. I like that this book takes place in Poland and describes some of Krakow, which is a gorgeous city to visit. I also like the alternating POVs. Pam Jennoff’s latest book takes you the sewers in Poland during summer of 1943, where Sadie and her parents are hiding from the Germans. The book starts off setting the stage of the Jews being rounded up in 1942 but soon skips to the family going into hiding in the sewers. The book caused me to have a knot in my stomach as each page turned, with not knowing how things would pan out for the family. The book has a couple of twists that I didn’t see coming. I really enjoyed this book, another part of WWII history that I wasn’t aware of. Highly recommend this book. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
