Résumé
Germany, 1929. At a festive gathering of young bohemians in Weimar, two artists, Max, a skilled Jewish architect, and Bettina, a celebrated avant-garde painter, are drawn to each other and begin a whirlwind romance. Their respective talents transport them to the dazzling lights of Berlin, but this bright beginning is quickly dimmed by the rising threat of Nazism. Max is arrested and sent to the concentration camp at Dachau, where only his talent at making exquisite porcelain figures stands between him and seemingly certain death.
Desperate to save her lover, Bettina risks everything to rescue him and escape Germany. America, 1993. Clara, Bettina's daughter, embarks on a journey to trace her roots and uncover the identity of her father, a secret her mother has kept from her for reasons Clara's never understood. Her quest to piece together the puzzle of her origins transports us back in time to the darkness of Nazi Gee many, where life is lived on a razor's edge, and deception and death lurk around every corner.
Survival depends on strength, loyalty, and knowing true friends from hidden foes. As Clara digs further, she begins to question why her mother was so determined to leave the truth of her harrowing past behind.... The Porcelain Maker is a powerful novel of enduring love and courage in the face of appalling brutality as a daughter seeks to unlock the mystery of her past.
