Very interesting to read of a person who was relatively young during both the first and the second world wars. The details of life in bombed London was eye opening to experience their day to day lives with constant fear until it became mundane. The message that there shouldn't be borders to countries was pertinent. Who really is the enemy and how do you deal with the enemy changing all the time? a thought provoking read. I'm entirely disappointed with how the last 50 pages of this story went. When I started to actually tolerate the storyline, the author went and ruined both characters. If I had been the editor, I would have removed pages 1-100 and 250 to 308. I wish, like a DVD, there was an alternate ending option. This book needed one. I would have rather continued reading the schizophrenic outbursts of eating live horses and pissing in the mouths of dead bodies like the first 100 pages, then read about a cry baby male spy and an unrealistic female spy.
What do You think about The German Woman (2009)?
