Product Information

An important and unforgettable story, brilliantly re-told by Booker Prize-winner Ian McEwan. Rose Blanche was the name of a group of young German citizens who, at their peril, protested against the war.

Rose follows the truck to a desolate place out of town, where she discovers many other children, staring hungrily from behind an electric barbed wire fence. She starts bringing the children food, instinctively sensing the need for secrecy, even with her mother. Until the tide of the war turns and soldiers in different uniforms stream in from the East, and Rose and the imprisoned children disappear...
