The orphan's tale : a novel

Jenoff, Pam. (Author).

Sixteen-year-old Noa has been cast out in disgrace after becoming pregnant by a Nazi soldier and being forced to give up her baby. She lives above a small rail station, which she cleans in order to earn her keep. When Noa discovers a boxcar containing dozens of Jewish infants bound for a concentration camp, she is reminded of the child that was taken from her. And in a moment that will change the course of her life, she snatches one of the babies and flees into the snowy night.

The Orphan's Tale


This powerful novel of friendship set in a German traveling circus during World War II introduces two extraordinary women and their harrowing stories of sacrifice and survival. At first rivals, Noa and Astrid soon forge a powerful bond. But as the façade that protects them proves increasingly tenuous, they must decide whether their friendship is enough to save one another.
