![]() Zelda Mark II isn't having an easy time of it. He's looking after his granddaughter, Zelda's namesake, whose parents are doctors volunteering in Darfur. He's built a good life as a surgeon in Australia, and is now frustratingly retired, unable to operate because of his shaky hands. In Now, we catch up with Felix many years later. We followed his story in Then, in which he and his dear friend Zelda are on the run from the Nazis at the height of the Holocaust and its terrifying Final Solution. He thought he was the luckiest child in the orphanage, since he was the only one whose parents weren't dead. Gorgeous book, bubbling over with understanding and humanity. ![]() Summary: The concluding part of this lovely and moving trilogy about the Holocaust takes us to the present day in Australia, where Zelda struggles to live up to the namesake who died at the hands of the Nazis. ![]()
