Description
This Terrible Beauty by Katrin Schumann is a powerful story of one woman's struggle to reclaim her life after the devastating legacy of WWII. On the windswept shores of an East German island, Bettina Heilstrom builds a new life from the ashes, but her past soon catches up with her.
When Bettina falls in love with an idealistic young man, she is forced to make a terrible choice: spend her life in prison or leave her home forever. Ten years later, she has reinvented herself as a celebrated photographer in Chicago, but the memories of her lost child and beloved continue to haunt her.
Surprised by an unexpected visitor from her past, Bettina resolves to return to her ravaged homeland to reclaim her daughter and uncover the fate of her loved one, no matter the cost.
