Paris Never Leaves You

 

Ellen Feldman, 2020

This is a story of resilience, love and impossible choices.  Set in Paris during the German Occupation, the book alternates between Paris in the 1940’s and the New York publishing world of the 1950’s.  We meet Charlotte, a young mother, working in a bookstore and fighting for her life and the life of her infant daughter.  Starvation and disease haunt them until a German soldier enters the bookshop and takes a liking to mother and daughter.  Later, living in New York, she learns that survival never comes without a cost and the past is never past.
