She has escaped on one of the first kindertransporte organized to take Jewish children out of Germany to safety in Britain. At first Marianne is desperate. She does not speak English, she is not welcome in her sponsors’ home, and, most of all, she misses her mother terribly. As the months pass, she realizes that she cannot control the circumstances around her. She must rely on herself if she is to survive. In this exciting companion to Good-bye Marianne, Irene N. Watts has created a memorable character, and a story that is ultimately about hope, not war. Based on true events, this fictional account of hatred and racism speaks volumes about history and human nature. AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY Irene N. Watts is a storyteller, playwright, drama consultant, and director who has worked throughout Canada and Europe. Although she, too, was born in Germany and left on a kindertransport, Marianne’s story is not an autobiography. Irene Watts lives in British Columbia.
