The overgrown path
註釋The German occupation of Czechoslovakia is now over. Apart from severe fire damage to the ancient City Hall, Prague has survived unscathed. Deportees are returning to the city. Some never return. When the young men who had fought with the Allies view the political uncertainty in Czechoslovakia, many decide to stay in England. Those who return are soon persecuted by the new regime, deemed to be traitors. The Communist coup d'etat in 1948 ushers in 40 years of totalitarianism. After a perilous entry into the world, Annicka, the child born in Terezin but now living in England, is far removed from the troubles in the land of her birth. As she grows up, however, there are unexpected twists and revelations in her life and the lives of those whom she loves and holds dear.
