For Paul, with love. Jewish silversmith Johann Blumenthal engraved those words on his most exquisite creation, a singing filigree bird inside a tiny ornamented box. He crafted this treasure for his young son before leaving to fight in a terrible war to honor his beloved countrya country that would soon turn against his own family. A half century later, Londoner Lilian Morrison inherits the box after the death of her parents. Though the silver is tarnished and dented, this much-loved treasure is also a link to an astonishing past. With the keepsake is a letter from Lilian's mother, telling her daughter for the first time that she was adopted. Too young to remember, Lilian was rescued from a Germany in the grips of the Holocaust. Now only she can trace what happened to a family who scattered to the reaches of the world, a family forced to choose between their heritage and their dreams for the future."-- Page [4] of cover. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Holocaust survivors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Adoptees $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Music box $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Inheritance and succession $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Historical fiction. 650 0 $a German fiction. 650 0 $a Jews $z Germany $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Historical fiction. 700 1 $a Layland, Alison, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l JMPC081 $d 20180606010827.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EBC3697C694E11E8B00D785897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
