May 8, 1945: V-E Day. Germany surrenders and Allied victory is proclaimed in Europe. “The flags of freedom fly all over Europe!” This is is story of resilience, courage, and love. Mostly about love. #weweretheluckyones #georgiahunter #2019reads @Georgia_Hunter
This was just lovely. Hunter's story of researching her family's experience during WWII was fascinating . . . so I put the book on hold. I'm so glad I did! Hunter alternates the chapters' points of view, telling the stories of her grandfather, his siblings, and her great-grandparents beautifully. She never falls into easy sentimentality, but I was emotionally and intellectually engaged throughout. Just beautiful!
