Özet

As the Russians advance into East Prussia, women and children are forced out of their homes to make way for the victorious troops.

Their fight for survival is only just beginning...

Facing critical food shortages and the onset of a bitterly cold winter, some of the older children, the 'wolf children' secretly cross the border into Lithuania, begging the local farmers for work or food they can take back to their starving families.

Cinematic and elegantly written, Alvydas Šlepikas's debut novel, based on real-life events, is both meticulously researched and stunningly powerful. It won numerous awards on publication and took Lithuania by storm.

I recently read Herta Muller’s novel ‘The Passport’ which deals with a similar theme of post-war chaos, although that novel centres on a German speaking village that after the war has become part of Romania. This book is no less stark and the descriptions of the treatment and conditions of the protagonists is heartbreaking at times. However there is also a sense of hope and humanity throughout the book which is also beautifully written.

Bleak and unflinching but so beautifully written and narrated
