MY DEAR ANDREA AND ANDRIS
Teri Korda
The author grew up in Budapest and married prior to the outbreak of the Second World War. After Nazi occupation, her beloved Tibor was taken for slave-labour, and she needed all her considerable wit and courage to survive with her two-year-old son, Andris. Although this book is about grim times, the reader will find it anything but grim reading. It is an adventure story and a love story, peopled by a fascinating array of larger-than-life characters. But mostly, it is Teri who fascinates – funny, resilient, and affectionate – who has lived so fully and bravely.
