The Porcelain Maker
by Sarah Freethy
What a tragically beautiful story. Told from the perspective of two voices, Clara Vogel and her mother Bettina. Each woman tells of their experiences, Bettina with the loss of beauty and her lover Max in the horrific inhumanity caused by the Nazi in World War II, Clara with not knowing who her father was and how much her mother hid from her. Beautifully written, it is a story of lost love, loss of spirit, but also of perseverance, strength and finding hope even in the darkest times. I very much enjoyed this story, like how the characters interacted with each other, the secondary characters added depth to the story line. The alternating voices was cohesive and by the end of the book, I think helped to understand the characters better. I look forward to reaching this author again.
