Description
In 1921, Francoise Frenkel, a Jewish woman from Poland, opened Berlin’s first French bookshop. It was a dream come true. The bookshop attracted artists and diplomats, celebrities and poets. It brought Francoise peace, friendship and prosperity. Then, in the summer of 1939, the dream ended and Francoise began a desperate, headlong flight from Nazi persecution. Unfolding in Berlin, Paris and the landscapes of southern France, this is a heartbreaking account of human cruelty and undying kindness.
