Author(s): Jean-Claude Grumberg
Following the German occupation of France, a Jewish family escapes from Paris, change names, flee to the South of France, and are given a single room to live in by a Christian farmer. The trials and tribulations of the family, including the worry over the birth of a child and the constant fear of discovery, ultimately end with France’s liberation.
