Through Trudi's
unblinking eyes, we witness the growing impact of Nazism on the ordinary
townsfolk of Burgdorf as they are thrust on to a larger moral stage and forced
to make choices that will forever mark their lives. Stones from the River is a
story of secrets, parceled out masterfully by Trudi — and by Ursula Hegi — as
they reveal the truth about living through unspeakable times. Featured in Oprah's Book Club 1997
