What a fantastic little book. I read it in one afternoon. This book is a memoir, written by a young boy as he comes to terms with the sectrets of his family. He is a lonely, sickly little boy, growing up after WW2. He makes up his family's history as his parents don't like talking about their past. His version of their history is lovely, full of warmth and love. When he learns the truth at 15 from a family friend, his world turns upside down. His version couldn't have been further from the truth.
The story is mesmerising, haunting and captivating. There are no dialogues at all, but it is so well written, that the words of the little boy capture your heart. Through the family friend's memories his past comes to life, the horror of WW2 reemerges and through it all a young boy finds meaning and truth in his life. He learns where he really comes from, learns who he is, and understands his family's history.
I could not put this book down. It's beautiful in its haunting way. I can't say enough of it.
Read it.
