The World That We Knew
by Alice Hoffman

With over thirty published novels, Alice Hoffman’s historical fiction, The World That We Knew, has been recommended as #1 by several of our members. I can see why—it’s hard to put down. The WWII story of three young women, Lea, Ettie and Ava (a golem created by 22 Hebrew letters) blends the mysticism of magical realism with her magnificent storytelling. We  immediately connect to the characters. Facing danger and adversity, they change, strengthen and find kindness and love—bringing many new and meaningful aspects to the “flower on a stem of thorns”.
