About this listen

A thrilling tale and powerful love story that tells the heroic and tragic true story of the German resistance in World War II.

When Hitler comes to power in 1933, a tight-knit group of friends and lovers become hunted outlaws overnight. United in their resistance to the madness and tyranny of Nazism, they must flee the country. Dora, passionate and fearless, her lover, the great playwright Ernst Toller, her younger cousin Ruth and Ruth's husband, Hans, find refuge in London. Here they take breathtaking risks in order to continue their work in secret. But England is not the safe haven they think it to be, and a single chilling act of betrayal will tear them apart....

I loved this book. Anna Funder has brought a remarkable story into the light and shows how easily history is distorted or simply not told . I loved her use of simile in her telling of Ruth’s memories.

This is such a worthwhile book. So much better than many other popular, but undeserving, books about WW2 and the Nazi regime. It is beautifully written and read. Informative, engaging and moving. And I don’t know the author!

Wonderful

The holocaust shared by each individual in this story of devotion and pain, reignited a story of my own.
I too, was subjected to a psychological foundation of dictatorship.
When alas, my courage finally gave out, I allowed 'them' to sweep me into the culvert.
I remain here ~ forgotten.
Courage came and went with these individuals, and I ached for them to be believed.

A story boldly told
