"Originally published in Polish by Wydawnictwo Literackie as Sońka in 2014" -- Verso title page. Translated from the Polish.
Summary:
"Sonka is the story of an old woman, lonely, forgotten, and shunned by her community, until one day a theater director's car breaks down near her house, and an unexpected guest supplies her with the chance to tell her story. And so unfolds her tale of love between an SS officer and a local girl against the backdrop of the Second World War. Everyday chores are threaded with executions, stolen moments in between episodes of abuse, lies are thoughtlessly uttered only to change the worlds and lives of two families forever" -- Provided by publisher.
