Welcome to my Sunday! I found this book in the suggestion list while downloading another book and decided to check it out. As soon as I began the sample, I knew I was going to read it. I downloaded it at 8:00 this morning and finished it at 8:00 tonight! I didn't do much else today other than eat. GOOD read! Don't you just love a book that can suck you up for an entire day? It is based in Czhechoslovakia before World War II, when Victor and Liesl, young and newly married, want to have a modern house. An up and rising architect, somewhat taken with the beautiful Liesl, designs a crazy modern house that has a glass room. This becomes the backdrop of the novel, as Victor and their family are forced to leave as he is a Jew, and we all know how they fared in those Hitleresque times -- and then the story continues with what happens to the house, and also what happens to them. It is good! Good Good Good!
