Story4.5 out of 5 stars 125
Anya Savikin lived among well-to-do Russian Jews in Poland, in a world more like Tolstoy's than our own, until the first bombing of Warsaw and the chaos that ensued. Her story incarnates the strength and love of Eastern European Jewry, before and after their decimation.

Many people find these stories depressing. Sure there were lots of casualties and I truly mourn them but the journeys of those who survived are so inspiring! I loved this book. There were villians and lots of heroes and just regular people.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 520
Filled with breathtaking images and historical detail, Danielle Steel's novel introduces one of her most unique and fascinating characters: Annabelle Worthington, a remarkable woman - a good woman - who triumphs against overwhelming odds. More than compelling fiction, her story is a powerful celebration of life, dignity, and courage - and a testament to the human will to survive.
