The Book Thief
14.99 €
January 1939. Germany. A country holding its breath. Death has never had so much work to do. And there will be more.

Nine-year-old Liesel Meminger and her younger brother are being driven by their mother to their adoptive parents near Munich because their father is no longer alive—he was carried away by the breath of the strange, alien word "communist," and in her mother's eyes, the girl sees fear of a similar fate. On the way, death visits the boy and notices Liesel for the first time.

So the girl finds herself on Himmelstrasse—Heaven's Street. Whoever came up with the name had a healthy sense of humor. Not that it's hell. No. But it's certainly not heaven, either.
