"It is the story of Ilse, a German-speaking Jew born between the wars in the Sudetenland. The emotional heart of the book resides in her love for her family - her younger sister, whom she protects and cares for, and her parents, whom she attempts to free from persecution in Europe - and for Fred Tisch, the celebrated songwriter with whom she falls in love."--Back cover. Written In first person, as if by Ilse.
