Description

Caging Skies by Christine Leunens is a striking and original novel that reveals a world of truth and lies both personal and political. Set against the backdrop of World War II, the story follows Johannes Betzler, an avid member of the Hitler Youth, as he discovers his parents are hiding a Jewish girl named Elsa behind a false wall in their home.

As Johannes navigates this complex web of secrets and lies, his initial horror and revulsion give way to interest and obsession. With the help of his daydreams about Adolf Hitler, Johannes plans for the end of the war and what it might mean for him and Elsa. This powerful novel is a stylistic and storytelling triumph, written in Christine Leunens's gorgeous and muscular prose.
