Why read it?
1 author picked Karolina's Twins as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My mother gave me this book to read when I first started writing my novel (in order to write, you have to read all the time), and it profoundly affected me and gave me so much inspiration for my book. It had so many similar stories in it that my own family had gone through during the war, so it was the perfect story for me to sink my teeth into, to find a voice for my characters. This book is so so good, for anyone who loves historical fiction.
From Tetyana's list on showing how people navigate loss and hope.
