Description
For fans of Anna Funder, Vasily Grossman and Irène Némirovsky, a sweeping, exhilarating novel from acclaimed journalist John David Morley.
Spanning the decades from World War II to the Yugoslav conflict, Ella Morris is the story of a remarkable woman, and of the toll history takes on individual lives.
Born
in Berlin on the eve of Hitler's rise to power, Ella Andrzejewski
escapes Soviet-occupied Europe and finds a safe haven in England. Here,
she marries George Morris, but subsequently falls in love with Claude de
Marsay, a French student ten years her junior.
The intrusion of
Claude upsets the balance of the Morris household, while the effects of
Ella's traumatic past continue to be felt. As the decades pass and
Europe lurches towards another conflict, Ella's children and
grandchildren struggle to find their peace in a continent still
reverberating with the echoes of war.
