Sarah's Key raises awareness of an autrocity of WWII most people are unaware of.
Even with family who had been aware of many of the happenings from WWII, there was surprise about the events of Vin'd'Hiv'. A friend who was schooled in France had also never heard of it.
This book uses fiction to educate and remind us that we have to be aware of history to be sure we don't repeat the same mistakes.
This is a beautiful story of a journalist who is assigned the Vin'd'Hiv as an assignment for her magazine and it leads to her own coming of age. It was a book I couldn't easily put down.
