520    "In 1921, Franc̦oise Frenkel-a Jewish woman from Poland-
       fulfills a lifelong dream. She opens Berlin's first French
       -language bookshop, La Maison du Livre, attracting artists,
       diplomats, celebrities, and poets. The shop soon becomes a
       haven for intellectual exchange as Nazi ideology begins to
       poison the culturally rich city. But as the occupation 
       intensifies and politics darken, Frenkel's bookshop is 
       frequently visited by police officers who confiscate her 
       beloved books. Frenkel's dream finally shatters on 
       Kristallnacht-The Night of Broken Glass-as Jewish shops 
       and businesses, including La Maison du Livre, are 
       destroyed. She flees to Paris where she witnesses 
       countless horrors: children torn from their parents, 
       mothers throwing themselves under buses, and worse. 
       Secreted away from one safe house to the next, Frenkel 
       survives at the heroic hands of strangers risking their 
       lives to protect her. Originally published in 1945, and 
       rediscovered nearly sixty years later in an attic, A 
       Bookshop in Berlin is the remarkable tale of one woman 
       whose passion for life and literature helps her survive 
       history's darkest hours"--Provided by publisher.
