Danusha’s mother, Anna, changes her name and secures a position as a housekeeper in a German doctor’s mansion in Kraków where Gestapo meetings are hosted in the kitchen…\n\n\n\nHer secret is their salvation, but what Danusha remembers most is the solitude, with only her baby brother and the girl in the mirror for company.\n\n\n\nAll Anna ever wanta firstborn son. All Danusha ever wanted was a mother who would love her like a firstborn son. Instead she got one who could look a Nazi straight in the eye but not the eyes of her own daughter.\n\n\n\nIt is only years later, when their neighbours gather in the living room to hear Anna’s stories, that Danusha finally realises her mother was never a cold unknowable sea but a storm-wracked sky – sometimes bright, sometimes dark, and always watching over her.\n\n\n\n\nThe Polish Girl is a heartbreaking and unforgettable historical novel by the author of international bestseller The Brothers of Auschwitz – perfect for fans of Antonio Iturbe and Edith Eger.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adler, Malka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41929751298125,"sku":"CONF20250716001","price":145.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/3856\/4685\/files\/9780008526559_20250711_165305.jpg?v=1752690121","url":"https:\/\/readmatter.co.za\/products\/buy-the-polish-girl-malka-adler-conf20250716001","provider":"Readmatter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
