Reviews

“ All in all, Anne C. Voorhoeve's Liverpool Street is a very nice book to read. The topic dealt with - Jews in World War II - is certainly not new, but thanks to the sympathetic main character, the not quite everyday circumstances and the beautiful narrative style, the book stands out positively from the mass of such publications. ”(Roterdorn.de by mary-p )

“The story is emotionally disturbingly painful. You get an insight into their feelings, into their fears and hopes. "(Leselupe.de by Heike Rau)

“This novel deals with the persecution of the Jews and the war from an unfamiliar perspective, since it hardly deals with the events in Nazi Germany, but the lives of the Jewish children rescued in England. It is all the more interesting to find out how those who were rescued fared. "(Buchinformation.de S. Brink)
