Salt To The Sea (Ruta Sepetys)
Artikelnummer: 9780141347400 OverzichtIt's early 1945 and a group of people trek across Germany, bound together bytheir desperation to reach the ship that can take them away from the warravaged land. Four young people, each haunted by their own dark secret, narrate their unforgettable stories. Fans of The Book Thief or Helen Dunmore's The Siege will be totally absorbed. This inspirational novel is based on a true story from the Second World War. When the German ship the Wilhelm Gustloff was sunk in port in early 1945 it had over 9000 civilian refugees, including children, on board. Nearly all were drowned. Ruta Sepetys, acclaimed author of Between Shades of Grey, brilliantly imagines their story.
