Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
The perilous odyssey undertaken by some European Jews during World War II to avoid the doom awaiting them in concentration camps is depicted in this vivid, haunting novel. Saskia Stark and her mother, Helga, have already fled from Germany to Holland, where Saskia encounters David Held, a widowed German Jew who had been sentenced to Dachau. Although he was miraculously freed, David knows that Nazi authorities plan to identify and annihilate all Jews within their domain. Faced with this realization, David and Saskia hastily marry to formalize their love. When Saskia and her mother are scheduled for deportation, theyalong with David and Helga's companion Paulset out for France's free zone. Sympathetic acquaintances hide them along the way, but other developments hamper the travelers, and Saskia fears for daring, altruistic David while she simultaneously copes with her advancing pregnancy. Mautner, who herself experienced the wartime dislocation she describes here, wrote Out of a Season. (March)
School Library Journal
YA Two young German Jews fall in love in occupied Europe in 1940. This suspenseful tale, told in alternate chapters by David and Saskia, follows them and her family throughout Europe as they try to evade capture by the Nazis. They flee from one country to another and finally to the Swiss border. Readers will feel their terror and fear mount as one avenue of escape after another is closed. Food becomes scarce, friends are not to be trusted, and money starts to run out. David and Saskia reach the Swiss border and Saskia goes into labor. They manage to enter Switzerland in a breathtaking and explosive conclusion. Beautiful and lyrical writing by Mautner, who brings her own experiences to the novel. Pat Royal, Prince George's County Public School System, Md.
