The Lieutenants Lover
Review: This is the story of Misha, a young officer in the army during the Russian revolution, and Tonya a nurse from a very poor family. They fall passionately in love but eventually in order to save his life Misha must flee his homeland. Thirty years later Misha tries to rebuild his life around the ruins of Berlin but one day he catches a glimpse of a woman who resembles Tonya. There begins the story of two lovers trying to find each other. The Lieutenant''s lover spans from 1917 to 1989 and keeps the reader enthralled from page one. How will these two people ever be re-united as the divide between the West and East deepens? A thoroughly good read.
