Description - City of Women by David Gillham
A gripping and evocative tale of life in Berlin at the height of the Second World War- romance, duplicity and unfathomable choices
In the very darkest hour, who do you trust, who do you love, and who can be saved?
It is 1943 - the height of the Second World War. With the men taken by the army, Berlin has become a city of women. And while her husband fights on the Eastern Front, Sigrid Schr der is, for all intents and purposes, the model soldier's wife- she goes to work every day, does as much with her rations as she can, and dutifully cares for her meddling mother-in-law.
But behind this fa ade is an entirely different Sigrid, a woman who dreams of her former Jewish lover, who is now lost in the chaos of the war.
Sigrid's tedious existence is turned upside-down when she finds herself hiding a mother and her two young daughters- could they be her lover's family? Now she must make terrifying choices that could cost her everything.
