It is 1939, Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will become busier still. By her brother's graveside, Liesel's life is changed when she picks up a single object, partially hidden in the snow. It is The Gravedigger's Handbook, left there by accident, and it is her first act of book thievery. So begins a love affair with books and words, as Liesel, with the help of her accordion-playing foster father, learns to read. Soon she is stealing books from Nazi book-burnings.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Book Thief to be better than the print version?
The narration is exquisite - mesmerising and equal to the beauty of the written word.

In 1996, Hanna Heath, a rare-book expert, is offered the job of a lifetime: analysis and conservation of the famed Sarajevo Haggadah, which has been rescued during the Bosnian war. Priceless and beautiful, the book is one of the earliest Jewish volumes ever to be illuminated with images. When Hanna discovers a series of artifacts in its ancient binding, she begins to unlock the book's mysteries. The reader is ushered into an exquisitely detailed past, tracing the book's journey from its salvation back to its creation.

Where does People of the Book rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This would rate as one of my best loved books - audio or hardcopy - sumptuous!
I could not /cannot wait to recommend this book.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Delightful changes in time and character - with such perfect balance between fact and fiction.
Which character – as performed by Edwina Wren – was your favorite?
I have to say she gave all characters depth and distinction - she is really outstanding in this book, given the range of nationalities.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Must see!!
Any additional comments?
I just want to spread the word - this is a fantastic work.
