A Small Person Far Away

Judith Kerr’s third installment in the Out of the Hitler Time trilogy explores Anna’s return to Berlin, where her journey through war-torn history leads her to confront her past and her family’s memories. As Anna faces her mother’s serious illness, she grapples with questions of life, death, and the enduring impact of history. This partly autobiographical story offers a thoughtful and poignant exploration of memory, loss, and resilience.
