Sinossi
"In mezzo a questa gente sarebbe sempre stato uno straniero - un ausländer. Ma nel suo cuore Peter sentiva di avere ragione. Qualcosa dentro di lui gli impediva di accettare la cieca fede che loro nutrivano nei confronti di Hitler e del nazismo". Polonia 1941. I genitori di Peter vengono uccisi e il ragazzo mandato in orfanotrofio a Varsavia. Peter, biondo con gli occhi azzurri, sembra il ragazzo ritratto nel manifesto della gioventù hiltleriana e può essere adottato da una famiglia importante. Così avviene. Il professor Kattelbach e sua moglie sono entusiasti di accogliere nella loro famiglia un giovane dall'aspetto così "ariano". Ma Peter non è il ragazzo tipico della gioventù hitleriana, Peter non vuole essere un nazista e decide di correre un rischio... il rischio più grande che si può correre a Berlino nel 1943.

Cover Blurb: Yes or No? I really like the cover; there's no second-guessing where - and when - this book takes place, and its general subject-matter. It's intriguing, attention-grabbing, ominous, and exciting at the same time. Or maybe that's just because I absolutely love WWII stories. Characters: U Leggi tutto
The story follows a young Polish boy named Piotr (later, Peter) Bruck who is considered Volksdeutscher--with all Germanic physical features. From my perspective, Paul Dowswell does so well in Piotr/Peter's character development; from a humble farm boy in Polish countryside, a German enthusiast livin Leggi tutto
I would love to give this one a solid 3.5 stars. The only reason it would not be higher in my ratings scale is the fact that I felt the writing to be inconsistent. The story on the other hand is one rarely found when dealing with youth WWII literature. While I have read numerous stories of jewish ho Leggi tutto
