Julie Orringer has an incredible gift for storytelling, for painting the hopes and dreams and experienced horrors of her characters in such a way that is stunningly true to life. This story of wartime Hungary and Paris is an eminently believable tale of a family nearly decimated by war, and the hope they never lost. I will watch eagerly for more from Julie Orringer. I am an eclectic reader, and cross genres wildly, picking up the best and finding myself the richer for it. If you haven't heard of THE INVISIBLE BRIDGE, let me encourage you to check it out. This epic saga traces the Andras Levi family in pre-WWII Hungary. From Andras' experiences as a Jewish architectural student in Paris, through he and his brother's horrifying experiences as conscripted laborers for the Hungarian army, we find hope repeatedly shattered, and repeatedly regained. The love between Andras and fugitive ballerina Klara Hasz is poignantly told in all its joyous and potentially disastrous facets. Orringer's historical accuracy is beautifully couched in flawless pacing and her descriptive voice makes this a compelling and significant read.
