Abstract/Summary New York City, 2015: Elise Duval, 80, receives a phone call from a woman who has just arrived from Cuba bearing messages from a time and country that she's long forgotten. A French Catholic who arrived in New York after World War II, Elise and her world are forever changed when the woman arrives at her apartment with letters from her mother written in German during the war, unravelling more than seven decades of secrets. Berlin, 1939: Bookstore owner and recent widow Amanda Sternberg is fleeing Nazi Germany with her two young daughters toward unoccupied France. She arrives in Haute-Vienne with only one of her girls, but their freedom is short-lived and soon they are taken to a labor camp. Based on true events, The Daughter's Tale chronicles one of the most harrowing atrocities perpetrated by the Nazis during World War II: the 1944 massacre of all the inhabitants of Oradour-Sur-Glane, a small, idyllic village in the south of France. Heartbreaking and immersive, Armando Lucas Correa delivers a family saga of love, survival, and hope against all odds.
