À propos de cette écoute

Early on a grey November morning in 1941, only weeks after the German invasion, a small Ukrainian town is overrun by the SS.

Deft, spare and devastating, Rachel Seiffert's new novel tells of the three days that follow and the lives that are overturned in the process.

Penned in with his fellow Jews, under threat of transportation, Ephraim anxiously awaits word of his two sons, missing since daybreak. Come in search of her lover, to fetch him home again, away from the invaders, Yasia must confront new and harsh truths about those closest to her. Here to avoid a war he considers criminal, German engineer Otto Pohl is faced with an even greater crime unfolding behind the lines and no one but himself to turn to.

And in the midst of it all is the determined boy, Yankel, who will throw his and his young brother's chances of surviving to strangers.

A Boy in Winter is a story of hope when all is lost and of mercy when the times have none.

    A fine novel that locates small, flickering lights of hope in an otherwise desolate landscape (Nick Rennison)
    Seiffert's cool tone never wavers - her spare, beautiful prose is a joy to read (Helen Dunmore)
    Rachel Seiffert writes short, fast narratives about the big historical events that have shaped our time . . . The primal energy in this novel is a moral sore that will never heal. How could Seiffert's beloved Opa (grandad) not know what was going on? How, knowing, could he and her Oma not resist? Yet had they resisted, Seiffert would not be here, in 2017, to write for us. One closes this fine novel sensing the confused pain it must have caused Rachel Seiffert to write it (John Sutherland)
    Rachel Seiffert's new novel A Boy in Winter stretches over only three days, through which you encounter all the emotions of the time, horror and instinct for survival, family loyalty, and above all perhaps, bravery (James Naughtie)
    Completely captures those times in a vivid, precise, captivating and terrible way (Philippe Sands)
    A spellbinding evocation of fear and threat tinged with the possibility of hope and change, (Philippe Sands, author of East West Street)
    Rachel Seiffert's tale vividly evokes the Ukrainian landscape and the harrowing experiences of Jews at the hands of the Nazis (James Marriott)
    This year's standout novel (Willy Maley)
