I like that this book contains some specificity around the Hungarian experience in WW2. I'm not sure I've encountered that in any other book I've read on the topic - I'll check it out. Great review G!

"Do You Really Want To Know"? is a captivating book of history the title draws its reader's curiosity. often, events of the past are not accurately shared by the media as they might be politically influenced to suit a narrative. I feel sad reading about war, but I'd rather find out the occurrences to avoid false narratives and understand what really happened during the War. This is such a good review as it shares what to expect. I can't begin to imagine what Marta must have been through to be disconnected from her heritage. I Will add this to my shelve.

It's important to remember the atrocities of war, not just on the field, but in everyday life of the affected civilians. I enjoy books that follow seemingly random people then slowly reveal

I’ve always had a soft spot for historical novels- WWII being a particular interest of mine. This one really does sound well worth a read- especially interested about how the alternate 1960s plot line links in. Books like these are not only great bits of narration, but also so important in introducing people and educating them to history and the mistakes of war.

The world war was a really.sad time in the world and full of so many sad events. Reading about it isn't easy and I keep wondering how people who witnessed some of the atrocities lived after. Were they even still sane.

Your review is wonderful as usual, Gerry. But this topic does not attract me to read it. Perhaps what I always find useful from these stories is to remember that we are all human and deserve our freedom, regardless of our differences.

Yeah Gerry, this is a poignant and harrowing tale, that Fraser skillfully weaves together the past and present, the horrors of war with its enduring consequences, to create a deeply moving narrative. The exploration of themes like identity, family, and the lingering trauma of wartime experiences makes it particularly poignant. The alternating timeline was well executed, with each time period shedding light on the others.

Marta’s struggle to connect with her parents, in the aftermath of their trauma, is especially heartbreaking, and categorically it speaks to a universal human longing for understanding and belonging.
