A Pebble in my
Shoe |
|
Author: Katherine Hoeger-Flotz |
|
This book is
similar to the
Gakowa Memories but much more detailed.
It also contains the story of her husband,
George, whose family left their town Bezdan in
Oct. 1944 before the camps started. His
story is just as interesting as Katherine's.

A
novel about life in an imaginary small Austrian
village just across the border from Germany,
showing everyday life during WW1 and WW2.
Although it deals with an imaginary village and
imaginary people, their lives are based on
historic reality of life in that area at that
time. Winner of the Pen/Hemingway Award and the
Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Award.
A good read and very informative. |
