Paris Never Leaves You - Ellen Feldman

Paris Never Leaves You - Ellen Feldman

She read

Publication Date:  Aug. 4 2020

Charlotte and her young daughter, Vivi, struggle to survive in occupied Paris during World War II.  Charlotte did what she had to to take care of herself and her daughter.

The story telling alternates between 1940s Paris and 1950s New York as Charlotte finally comes to terms with what war turns some people into and the subsequent survivors guilt so many feel.

This is an engrossing, fast read although I felt that part of the New York story (the romance) just didn’t  “work” and spoiled it a bit for me.
