{"product_id":"when-its-over-9781631522963","title":"When It's Over","description":"Coming of age in Prague in the 1930s, Lena Kulkova is inspired by the left-wing activists who resist the rise of fascism. She meets Otto, a refugee from Hitler's Germany, and follows him to Paris to work for the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War. As the war in Spain ends and a far greater war engulfs the continent, Lena gets stuck in Paris with no news from her Jewish family, including her beloved baby sister, left behind in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia. Otto, meanwhile, has fled to a village in England, and urges Lena to join him, but she can't obtain a visa. \u003cbr\u003e When Lena and Otto are finally reunited, the safe haven Lena has hoped for doesn't last long. Their relationship becomes strained, and Lena is torn between her loyalty to Otto and her growing attraction to Milton, the son of the eccentric Lady of the Manor. As the war continues, she yearns to be reunited with her sister, while Milton is preoccupied with the political turmoil that leads to the landslide defeat of Churchill in the 1945 election. \u003cbr\u003e Based on a true story, \u003ci\u003eWhen It's Over\u003c\/i\u003e is a moving, resonant, and timely read about the lives of war refugees, dramatic political changes, and the importance of family, love, and hope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e She Writes Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/26\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781631522963\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.40w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2017 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/17\/2017\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Barbara Ridley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36663339188380,"sku":"9781631522963","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_5a246f09-f4f1-44c3-a7fb-252fb68d2485.jpg?v=1603904074","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/when-its-over-9781631522963","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
