The Garden by the Sea
by Sophie Goldberg
Description
Bulgaria, 1942. Boris III must hand over 20,000 Jews to the Nazis for extermination, but the king and his people do not intend to yield. Likewise, little Alberto, only six years old, resists when SS officers forcibly take his father away. Now he is the man of the family, and he must take care of his younger brother and his mother, who seeks to keep her children safe from the horrors of the war and not lose hope of being with her beloved husband once more.
Based on real events, The Garden by the Sea tells, through the eyes of a child, the previously untold story of the unique fate of Bulgarian Jews during World War II
