There have been many D-Days, from Sicily to Panama, from Okinawa to Grenada.

Scarred, possibly scared: Prague Spring by Simon Mawer
arts The irony is not lost on me that this book came to the top of the lingering bedside pile this week, given the current political climate. Set in Prague in 1968, the politics in that area of Europe both then and now is not for the faint hearted. I have read a couple of Simon Mawer’s books previously and like his style; not prone to exaggeration or hyperbole, he incorporates historical accuracy and political insight, yet is also touching and emotive.

arts Do such jobs really exist? Bioremediation? I’ve never really thought about who cleans up when someone dies alone and undiscovered for days, weeks, even months, nor what the place might look like. In this novel, it is Grace McGill who has the thankless task, and brief but detailed descriptions of ‘the remains’ make clear the necessity of a job done well.

Trio follows the lives of three protagonists, through the summer of 1968.

DECEMBER 2021 - WONDERLUST
LILY’S PROMISE: How I Survived Auschwitz and Found the Strength to Live By Lily Ebert Macmillan, £12 The Holocaust may be the most horrific event in the history of any world. It’s extremely difficult to talk about – and I’m talking about people who have no connection to it. You would think that sentiment would be shared by survivors, too. However, 76 years after overcoming the camps, they still want their experience told for all to learn. Lily Ebert is one such survivor.
