The Aftermath by Rhidian Brook
4.0
1946 post war Hamburg.
An English officer is assigned housing and duties in Hamburg just after the war. Instead of asking the German owner of the requisitioned house to leave, he asks the family to stay, both families living on different floors of the house.
This is a story about how Germans, English, Americans, and Russians thought of one another just as the war ended, and how their way of thinking and their way of life was changed.
A very captivating book about a specific time in history that I had not read about.
Can't wait to see the movie.
