'The History of Love' - by Nicole Kraus

Young love blossoms in Poland before the Second World War, but for the author of 'The History of Love', this love never fades. A book, written for love, finds it way to Chile and New York, in a journey filled with enigma, courage and hope.

In the Lower East Side of New York City, a retired locksmith called Leo has lived a life of longing for a certain Alma. In a neighboring suburb of New York City, fourteen year old, Alma attempts to heal her mother's unhappiness. Their lives intersect as they try to unravel the mystery of 'The History of Love'.

Kraus writes delicately as she brings to life, 'The History of Love'.
