Testament by Kim Sherwood . “Of everyone in her complicated family, Eva was closest to her grandfather: a charismatic painter - and a keeper of secrets. So when he dies, she's hit by a greater loss - of the questions he never answered, and the past he never shared. It's then she finds the letter from the Jewish Museum in Berlin. They have uncovered the testimony he gave after his forced labour service in Hungary, which took him to the death camps and then to England as a refugee. This is how he survived. But there is a deeper story that Eva will unravel - of how her grandfather learnt to live afterwards. As she confronts the lies that have haunted her family, their identity shifts and her own takes shape. The testament is in her hands.” . This book will be a break from my usual reads! I’ve been in a reading slump lately and hope this will pull me out of it, as I’ve heard it’s amazing, and also very moving. . . . #testament #kimsherwood #quercusbooks #currentlyreading #amreading #bookstagram #autumnaesthetic #autumn #fallaesthetic #beautifulbooks #bookobsessed https://www.instagram.com/p/BpEKV36hums/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1o595horny2r8
