Description
The Plum Trees A Novel by Victoria Shorr A powerful and intimate reckoning with the past, this novel tells the story of one woman's quest to uncover the truth about her family's history during World War II. Consie discovers a family letter from 1945 that hints at a shocking possibility: her great-uncle Hermann might have escaped from Auschwitz. As she delves deeper into her family's past, Consie draws on oral testimonies, historical records, and more to construct a visceral account of the lives of Hermann, his wife, and their daughters. From the happy days in prewar Czechoslovakia to their internment in Auschwitz and the end of World War II, The Plum Trees is a heart-wrenching exploration of loss, survival, and the enduring power of family history. This poignant tale is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for resilience and hope in the face of unimaginable tragedy.
