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.

I’ll be wrapping this one up and sending it to a friend who will be having knee surgery at the end of the month.
