A sweeping tale of love and loss, this is an exceptional accomplishment from one of Britain's bravest and most vibrant young writers and winner of 2011 Fiction Uncovered, selecting the UK's best fiction writers. In 1930s Berlin, choked by the tightening of Hitler's fist, the Klein family are gradually losing everything that is precious to them. Their fifteen-year-old daughter, Rosa, slips away on a Kindertransport train to begin a new life in England, vowing to secure a safe passage...
A master of characterisation, Charles Dickens introduces us to yet another memorable creation in the form of David Copperfield, the undisputed favourite of all his fictional children.
When David Copperfield escapes from the cruelty of his childhood home, he embarks on a journey to adulthood which leads him through comedy and tragedy, love and heartbreak, and friendship and betrayal.
