Acerca de esta escucha

In this intriguing historical novel, a young woman who is sent to a horrific “bride school” to be molded into the perfect Nazi wife finds her life forever intertwined with a young Jewish woman about to give birth.

Germany, 1939

As the war begins, Hanna Rombauer, a young German woman, is sent to live with her aunt and uncle after her mother’s death. Thrown into a life of luxury she never expected, Hanna soon finds herself unwillingly matched with an SS officer twenty years her senior. The independence that her mother lovingly fostered in her is considered highly inappropriate as the future wife of an up-and-coming officer and she is sent to a “bride school.” There, in a posh villa on the outskirts of town, Hanna is taught how to be a “proper” German wife. The lessons of hatred, prejudice, and misogyny disturb her and she finds herself desperate to escape.

For Mathilde Altman, a German Jewish woman, the war has brought more devastation than she ever thought possible. Torn from her work, her family, and her new husband, she fights to keep her unborn baby safe. But when the unthinkable happens, Tilde realizes she must hide. The risk of discovery grows greater with each passing day, but she has no other options.

When Hanna discovers Tilde hiding near the school, she knows she must help her however she can. For Tilde, fear wars with desperation when Hanna proposes a risky plan.

Will they both be able to escape with their lives and if they do, what kind of future can they possibly hope for?

I almost didn’t make it through the book because the performance sounded like Moira Rose from Schitt’s Creek. At some point, she dropped the weird narration style and then it was fine. Story was great

Ok Moira Rose…

How hard it must have been to live in prewar Germany just when hatred of anybody not of aryan race was so prominent. I loved the three main characters who though young adults fought the evil. The different plots were so good and scary The author and narrator top of their game. Needing a sequel please

One of the best books I have ever listened to

It was pretty good, a bit predictable. The narrator for the character Mathilde did not seem an appropriate choice.

Pretty good

I’ve had a lot of World War II based stories a lot about the Jews and their abominable treatment under Hitler. However, I have never read about the school for Nazi brides. Not surprising at all, terribly predictable, of the monsters.
The story is a little slow and drags at times, but still interesting good character development.

Interesting
