The Paris Library

Author: Janet Skeslien Charles

A quilting friend passed this book to me quite awhile ago. She said at the time it took her awhile to get into it so I put off reading it. I didn’t have any trouble with it at all and I’m a little sorry I took so long to start it.

Although a work of fiction it is based on the very real American Library in Paris, where the author worked for a time. The story tells about the struggles the staff encountered during the Second World War and, in particularly, during the occupation of Paris.
