The Orphan's Tale

I read The Orphan's Tale by Pam Jenoff which is set mainly in Germany during World War II.  Two characters narrate the story with their own chapters.  Noa is cast out of her Dutch family's home when she becomes pregnant and ends up with a travelling circus.  The other character, Astrid, had been brought up in a Jewish circus and had been married to a Nazi  officer until their marriage was no longer recognised.  She found shelter in the same circus as Noa had.  They then each play out their lives in the circus with various dramas along the way.  This was a good story let down in the telling. 31/2/5
