She was not a professional baker, but she did enjoy baking and was very good at it. <br /><br />Number 2--This is a better reason. I actually know a baker's daughter. Her mother founded a bakery in the neighborhood where I grew up and the family owned the shop for many years. The bakery is still there today, as far as I know, although the ownership has changed. The current owners have been robbed several times, at least once at gunpoint, and are hoping to move to a safer location. One problem is that they haven't been able to find a buyer for the building where the bakery is located. <br /><br />Who would have thought that the life of a baker could be so exciting? Anyway, I think it's a sad commentary on the current state of affairs that people who are trying to run a "mom and pop" store and just mind their own business aren't able to do so, for fear of being robbed or worse. <br /><br />persnicketypat@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304920138891211736.post-82421959769218152392012-03-07T20:13:35.956-05:002012-03-07T20:13:35.956-05:00This looks like an excellent book and sounds like ...This looks like an excellent book and sounds like something I would enjoy as it has an historical fiction element which is my favorite genre.

Although the subject might be a difficult one the book can offer an intriguing perspective to WWll and the Holocaust.<br /><br />The subject of this book is one that I can empathize with on a personal level as my grandma and her family were directly effected by discrimination toward Jews. My grandma, a Russian Jew was born in The Pale Settlement in about 1899. <br /><br />I would welcome the opportunity to participate in the author discussion, thank you.

The synopsis for the novel appeals to me as I am always curious to the actions and reactions characters have when they are faced with the choices they make in a time of travail and the morale crossroads that almost always arrive at. Will they continue down their path or find some redemption.<br />I also enjoy the viewpoint of the modern characters when they must eventually understand or judge the acts and choices made over a half a century before.<br /><br />agarcia85257@yahoo.com<br /><br />albert garciaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
