Summary
It is a true story based on 13 years of research: the story of friendship between a Jewish boy, Freddy, and his Christian friend, Helmut (who are separated by the political turmoil of the aftermath of the First World War in Germany), who obliged Freddy and Freddy’s family to seek refuge in France.
It is also the story of friendship between Freddy and George, Freddy’s classmate whom Freddy meets in school in Paris. Moreover, it is also the story of Sigmund, whose patriotic blindness impacted his and his family’s life; the story of Nellie, who left Germany for Colombia before Nellie’s parents sought refuge in France; and whose mission would be to reunite the family in a peaceful and friendly country.
Furthermore, the novel also emphasizes the emotional costs of the First World War and its indirect result on the onset of the Second World War.
