Winner of the Georg Dehio Book Prize 2018The Second World War is
drawing to a close, but the world is far from safe. Left to fend
for themselves, women and children are forced out of their homes in
East Prussia to make way for the advancing victors. As the Russian
soldiers arrive, the women know that they are still very much in
danger, and that for them, the fight for survival is only just
beginning.Facing critical food shortages and the onset of a bitter
cold winter without heat, the women send their children into the
nearby forests where they secretly cross the border into Lithuania,
begging the local farmers for work or food to take back home to
their waiting families. Along the way the children find cruelty,
hardship and violence, but also kindness, hope, and the promise of
a new and better future. Based on meticulous research, this
stunning and powerful debut novel by Alvydas Slepikas tells for the
first time the story of the `wolf children' and the measures many
families were forced to take in order to survive.
