Good-bye Marianne  Cover Image Book Book

Good-bye Marianne / by Irene N. Watts.

Watts, Irene N., (author.). Watts, Irene N. Goodbye Marianne. (Added Author).

Summary:

As autumn turns toward winter in 1938 Berlin, life for Marianne Kohn, a young Jewish girl, begins to crumble. First there was the burning of the neighbourhood shops. Then her father, a mild-mannered bookseller, must leave the family and go into hiding. No longer allowed to go to school or even sit in a café, Marianne’s only comfort is her beloved mother. Things are bad, but could they get even worse? Based on true events, this fictional account of hatred and racism speaks volumes about both history and human nature.
