This book is about two unlikely friends. One brown, one white; one female, one male; one born in 1970s Britain to Indian immigrant parents, the other arrived from Nazi Germany in 1939, fleeing persecution. This book is about common ground. It is a story of migration, anti-Semitism, racism, family, belonging, grief and resilience. This book is about the past and the present. It is about the mistakes of the twentieth century and the uncertain hope of our present moment. This book is about homelands. 20th Century Emigration & Immigration Friendship Military Modern Relationships Social Sciences Wars & Conflicts World War II
