Pictures of Anna

'The story focuses on love, trust, and sacrifice, against a backdrop of the cruelty of war' STEVE JOHNSON As a quaint old Norman church bathed in the late morning sunshine, a young bride waits anxiously for her groom. Anna, a German of Roma origin is stepping into a new life in London. She will finally escape the horrors of her past. When Anna flees the death camps of 1930s Germany to England, she is relieved. But events in her adopted homeland throw her best-laid plans in disarray. This is her story. It's a story about hope and heartbreak, love and hate, anger and confusion, blind prejudice and intolerance, and even redemption. Sam Martin's gritty prose tells a sensitive story. Seamlessly, he gives a well-rounded view of the war on the home front; its claustrophobic, tense atmosphere, the prevailing opinions of the day, and the seismic decisions taken by those in power. Just hope what happens to Anna, never happens to you.
