Piano Teacher of Montparnasse

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

In 1942, the Nazis came for a Jewish family living in Montparnasse, occupied Paris. In the chaos of their arrest, the eleven-year-old daughter fled to the only person she trusted: her piano teacher...

The author of the international bestseller, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, returns with a masterful new novel that captures the astonishing bravery of ordinary people in extraordinary times.

Inspired by real events and people, The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse tells the story of piano teacher and French Resistance operative, Andree Levallois, and the young girl she risks everything for.

With the authorities closing in, Andree and the girl are caught in a desperate race to stay alive. Soon, they are separated, and so starts Andree's fight for survival. She is determined to return and honour her promise to save the girl who has been entrusted to her care.

'A remarkable story of survival and how love triumphed in that lawless hell. A phenomenon' The Times on The Tattooist of Auschwitz
