Visible Worlds |
Fascinating story of a family of German immigrants in Canada jumping around from the 30s to the 60s, and the personal and international upheavals that they (mostly) live through.The story moves around Canada, Germany, Siberia, Korea and the Arctic, offering a refreshing perspective on world events of the time and their effects on the characters. Unusual, full of horrors, but also resilience, strong family bonds and some beautiful language - very worthwhile!
