Paperback. Condition: New. It is the middle of the roaring twenties, and Gittel is living The Hague with her parents, whose blazing rows are the traditional preserve of Sundays and public holidays. What luck, then, that Gittel is Jewish, and must submit to "the double helping of public holidays that is the lot of Jewish families…".After every matrimonial slanging match, Gittel's mother runs off to her parents' home in Antwerp - with her daugher in tow. Much to her delight, Gittel makes the acquaintance of the well-to-do Mardell family, who allow her to practise on their Steinway. Gittel feels that she is taken seriously by Mr Mardell, the head of the household, and by thirty-year-old Lucie, whom she adores. When these friendships turn out to be nothing but an illusion, Gittel learns her first lessons about trust and betrayal. Her second comes soon after, when her father, whose talents for business leave much to be desired, attempts to make a quick killing in Berlin on the eve of the Wall Street Crash.Though this intimate portrayal of familial strife is set in the shadow of the Holocaust, Simons says little about the horror that awaits her characters, yet she succeeds in giving the reader the sense that the novel is about more than a young girl's loss of innocence. In a fluid, almost casual style, she has written a masterly and timeless ode to a relatively carefree interlude in a dark and dramatic period.Translated from the Dutch by Liz Waters.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Unbekannte Unterschrift / Widmung / Aufkleber; Abnutzung / Risse - leicht. Na twee jaar in Westerbork en Theresienstadt moest Ida Simons haar veelbelovende carrière als concertpianiste opgeven. In 1959 debuteerde zij als romanschrijfster met het veelgeprezen, maar ten onrechte vergeten werk, waarin ee…n jong meisje in de jaren twintig wordt geportretteerd. Dit verhaal biedt een humoristisch en liefdevol beeld van Joods familieleven in Antwerpen, Den Haag en Berlijn. Gittel's ouders leven als kat en hond; haar vader is een sjlemiel die weinig bereikt in de zakenwereld. Wanneer het haar moeder te veel wordt, vertrekt ze met Gittel naar haar familie in Antwerpen, waar Gittel haar passie voor pianospelen kan volgen, ongestoord door de levendige sfeer van het gezin. Bij een bevriend bankiersgezin speelt ze op de Steinway en leert ze belangrijke levenslessen. Haar vertrouwen in de oudere vriendin Lucie wordt op harde wijze geschonden. Simons beschrijft de kwetsbare relatie tussen de meisjes in de drukke Joodse gemeenschap van Antwerpen en schetst een wereld die doet denken aan Elsschot. In Berlijn, waar Gittels vader snel rijk probeert te worden, verdwijnt de illusie van rijkdom na de beurskrach van 1929. Gittel vraagt zich af wie je nog kunt vertrouwen in deze wereld van oplichters. Met een lichte, vaak humoristische toon vertelt Ida Simons over de avonturen van de argeloze Gittel, die zoekt naar een veilige plek in een onzekere tijd.
