Address Unknown
by Kathrine Kressmann Taylor
“But there is another realm where we can always find something true, the fireside of a friend, where we shed our little conceits and find warmth and understanding, where small selfishnesses are impossible and where wine and books and talk give a different meaning to existence. There we have made something that no falseness can touch. We are at home.”
This novel is short but powerful. It tells the story of an overseas friendship over time. And it provides a brief, yet accurate history of the start of WWII and Hitler’s power in a personal narrative. You might be reading along and think you know the history and you know the plot. Just when you get settled in and you’re comfortable it punches you in the gut.
