This guilt is my current heartbreak. It helps to see my feelings articulated on the page.

Good book. Started out a little slow for me but then turned out to be a good book. Loved the ending.
3/5 Some parts I enjoyed, some parts I found too sanctimonious. To be honest, I was far much more interested by the 40-page diary at the end, in which Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt wrote his thoughts before, during, and after the writing of this book. I liked the references to Ulysse, I liked the father as a character, adding a humorous note to the heavy and sad subject of illegal immigration.

This is easily one of my top ten - if I had to get rid of my library, books. The terror came after decades of warning signs. The only way to not repeat history is to learn from it .
Wow! What an amazing read. So many times you wish for a story to take you away, out of the present and transport you into the book itself. This was that book! Two sisters in France, WWII, love and loss. A tragic but beautiful story. #warbooks

Continuing my Paris reading, alternating between the classic Baedeker‘s Paris travel guide, and the novel Paris, a saga spanning the years 1261 through 1968.
Bandette 🐶 loves to read with me as long as I keep her properly covered up under the blanket!
