Sol u moru

Sol u moru

Ruta Sepetys

As World War II draws to a close in East Prussia, thousands of refugees are desperately moving towards freedom; many of them are hiding secrets.

Among them are Joana, Emilia and Florian, whose paths cross on a journey to the “Wilhelm Gustloff”, a ship that promises salvation. United by chance, the three young people find in each other the strength, courage and trust that are put to the test with every step closer to safety. Just when it seems that freedom is within their reach, an unimaginable tragedy occurs. Neither country, nor culture, nor position matter when all ten thousand people on board, adults and children, must fight for the same thing: survival. Told from different perspectives, this moving novel is inspired by a real tragedy and the greatest maritime disaster in history, the sinking of the “Wilhelm Gustloff”. The author reveals the victims of a terrible war that incredibly few people know about and proves that humanity and love can win, even in the darkest moments.
