Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Heartfelt and unforgettable, The Shape of Memory is a moving tale of hope, resilience, and the quiet courage to start again.Set in the newly formed Czechoslovakia, this is a historical novel as seen through the eyes of one family's journey through two World Wars, and their attempt to rebuild their lives one brick, one field, and one dream at a time.

In the quiet shadows of the war, a young girl, Emilie Richter, searches for purpose, belonging, and a place to call home. From the rural fields of Moravia to the bustling streets of Nazi-occupied Prague, Emilie builds a life one deliberate step at a time.

But old scars ripple beneath the surface, shaping every choice she makes. She is powerless as she watches her small multi-cultural country succumb to the European Superpowers, wiping out centuries of tolerance as they become a pawn in starting World War II.

Compelled to resist in any way she can, Emilie discovers that true love can only exist with complete trust, and that one cannot thrive without the other. But memory is a constant companion. The fear, the loss, the quiet moments of love and regret-shape the person she is becoming.

Tender and unflinching, The Shape of Memory is a moving portrait of resilience, the quiet heroism of everyday work, and the enduring threads that bind us to the place---and people---we call our own.
