Overview
Un pack conmovedor que reúne las historias de Bruno, un niño testigo del Holocausto, y de su hermana Gretel, que muchos años después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial debe saldar cuentas con el pasado de su familia.
El niño con el pijama de rayas
Bruno, un niño alemán de nueve años, no sabe nada de la Solución Final ni del Holocausto. Lo único que sabe es que lo han trasladado con su familia de un cómodo hogar en Berlín a una casa en una zona desolada donde no hay nada que hacer ni nadie con quien jugar. Pero entonces conoce a Shmuel, un niño que lleva una extraña existencia al otro lado de la alambrada contigua y que, como el resto de los que viven allí, viste un pijama de rayas. La amistad con Shmuel llevará a Bruno de la inocenci a a la revelación, enfrentándolo a la terrible realidad de su época.
Todas las piezas rotas
Gretel Fernsby, la heraman de Bruno, es ahora una anciana de 91 años que vive en un apartamento en una de las zonas más acomodadas de Londres. Cuando una joven familia se muda al piso de abajo, Gretel entabla amistad con Henry, el hijo pequeño de la pareja. Una noche, tras ser testigo de una violenta discusión entre la madre de Henry y su dominante padre, Gretel se enfrenta a la oportunidad de expiar la culpa, el dolor y el remordimiento y hacer algo por salvar a un niño, por segunda vez en su vida. Pero para ello se verá obligada a revelar su verdadera identidad.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A boxed set that brings together the touching stories of Bruno, a child witness of the Holocaust, and his sister Gretel, who many years after the Second World War must come to terms with her family's past.
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
Two young boys encounter the best and worst of humanity during the Holocaust in this powerful read.
Berlin, 1942: When Bruno returns home from school one day, he discovers that his father has received a promotion and the family must move to a new house far, far away, where there is no one to play with and nothing to do. A tall fence stretches as far as the eye can see and cuts him off from the strange people in the distance. But Bruno longs to be an explorer and decides that there must be more to this desolate new place than meets the eye. While exploring his new environment, he meets another boy whose life and circumstances are very different from his own, and their meeting results in a friendship that has devastating consequences.
All the Broken Places
A stunning tour de force about a woman who must confront the sins of her own terrible past, and a present in which it is never too late for bravery.
Ninety-one-year-old Gretel Fernsby has lived in the same well-to-do mansion block in London for decades. She lives a quiet, comfortable life, despite her deeply disturbing, dark past. She doesn’t talk about her escape from Nazi Germany at age twelve. She doesn’t talk about the grim postwar years in France with her mother. Most of all, she doesn’t talk about her father, who was the commandant of one of the Reich’s most notorious extermination camps. Immersive, chilling, unputdownable, All the Broken Places moves back and forth in time between Gretel’s girlhood in Germany and present-day London.
