Book Cover & Preview Text
Hannah had not thought of the soldiers as human beings who had families. They were just soldiers one did not even look at. The grownups had said from the very beginning of the war: "Don't look them in the eyes, walk past them as if they do not exist!" Now the cook made her understand the young soldiers were victims, too, victims of the war. That they had to obey orders or die.
