Hidden and raised by a foster family in the provinces during the Nazi occupation, she survived the war only to find that her real parents had not.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMuch later, she fell out with her foster family, and Bart van Es - the grandson of Lien's foster parents - knew he needed to find out why. His account of tracing Lien and telling her story is a searing exploration of two lives and two families. It is a story about love and misunderstanding and about the ways that our most painful experiences - so crucial in defining us - can also be redefined.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winstones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35022643789977,"sku":"9780241978726","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/products\/9780241978726_9071d15e-9555-47ff-a1b4-ecfc38c067f1.jpg?v=1601402968","url":"https:\/\/steyningbookshop.info\/products\/9780241978726","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
