Bicycles And Blackberries: Tears and triumphs of a little evacuee - Softcover

A lovely read that I won't forget in a hurry * Echoes in an Empty Room * The cover page is beautiful. The characters are complicated but still simple when they are read about. The stroy moves fast. The language is very simple. The book gives a good taste of life during the war. It is almost nostalgic (...) I am glad I agreed to read and review the book. It is definitely a new type of literature for me * Meraki Post *
