Opis

A beautifully written debut novel set aboard the liner St Louis as it travels from Hamburg to Cuba - supposedly taking Jewish families to a safe new home. Both intensely moving and thought-provoking, this novel is based on a true story, one of the most devastating, yet little known, tragedies of WWII.

Recenzje

'Fascinating ... a brilliant entrée into the terrors, ardours, endeavours, hopeless valour and souls of those who have been written off ... Now, in a new age of people in peril and adrift on the world's seas, this magnificent novel - and the unexpected and intricate tragedies of its powerfully imagined characters - bespeaks this eternal injustice' THOMAS KENEALLY, bestselling author of Schindler's List
