Beschreibung

A stunning and heartbreaking new novel from Jamila Gavin, the bestselling and award-winning author of Coram Boy and The Wheel of Surya. 
Based on the true story of Indian WWI gunner and recipient of the Victoria Cross, Khudadad Khan. The story is told from four perspectives: Lotte, a Belgian farmgirl whose village is the flashpoint for a battle; Ernst, a German teenage infantry soldier whose grandiose dreams of war lie in tatters; Khudadad Khan, the gunner fighting with the British Army; and the walnut tree that shelters them all. 
For fans of David Almond (My Name is Mina), Benjamin Zephaniah (People Need People), Elizabeth Laird (Song of the Dolphin Boy), Ravena Guron (This Book Kills), and Philippa Pearce (The Battle of Bubble and Squeak).
