Skeletons at the Feast

by Chris Bohjalian

Tuesday, October 21

6:30 p.m.

In the waning months of World War II, a small group of people begin the longest journey of their lives. They must flee Prussia and move west to avoid the advancing Russian troops.

At the center is eighteen-year-old Anna, the daughter of Prussian aristocrats, and her first love, a twenty-year-old Scottish prisoner of war named Callum. With his boyish good looks and his dedication to her family, he has captured Anna’s heart. But he is the enemy, and their love must remain a closely guarded secret.
