The Hare with Amber Eyes by Edmund de Waal
Donated by Lucy Norris, who says...
This tale of a well-worn collection of Japanese netsuke is the red thread that stitches together a family history stretching across the borders of Europe and beyond, where love, luck and the chance encounter runs strong through a backdrop of prejudice, fear and destruction. It celebrates the unexpected connections between people who appear to be very different from each other, and so it gives me hope!
