Episode Synopsis

So, I lost my notes. Here's an emergency topic about two books we had to read for French Class: Noah's Child (L'enfant de Noé) by Eric Emmanuel Schmitt and The Empty House (La maison vide) by Claude Gutman. Both about children in WWII, not my favourite topic, and definitely not the best prepared (as you'll hear me say every two minutes or so), but if you're interested in WWII stories, this episode is for you!Spoilers for both books ahead. This will be more interesting if you've read the story. I do not intend for this to replace reading the book and I leave lots of details out (really, a LOT). Please, if you're interested in still reading this, go read the book and don't use this podcast episode as a substitute (you'll thank me). I don't own anything about the books I discuss.All podcast links: ⁠linktr.ee/justanotherbookishpodcast
