The Year of Goodbyes: A True Story of Friendship, Family and Farewells

No Customer Reviews

Like other girls, Jutta Salzberg enjoyed playing with friends, going to school, and visiting relatives. In Germany in 1938, these everyday activities were dangerous for Jews. Jutta and her family tried to lead normal lives, but soon they knew they had to escape-if they could before it was too late. Throughout 1938, Jutta had her friends and relatives fill her poesiealbum-her autograph book-with inscriptions. Her daughter, Debbie Levy, used these entries as a springboard for telling the story of the Salzberg family's last year in Germany. It was a year of change and chance, confusion and cruelty. It was a year of goodbyes.

Rated 4 stars
The last novel of a great career

By Thriftbooks.com User, November 24, 2004

This is MacInnes's last novel, and in many ways it represents a departure from her normal path. For one thing, the amateur hero who is the central figure is actually a heroine -- rare for MacInnes. Another change is that a significant portion of the novel actually takes place inside the CIA's Langley HQ, instead of being entirely focused on a field operation. A respected journalist is invited to a Soviet propaganda conference...

Great read!

By Thriftbooks.com User, November 25, 1998

This book is the first that I've ever read by Helen MacInnes, and I was very impressed! I got so into the book that I missed a date and stayed up reading until the wee hours of the morning to finish the book. There is a lot of action, from Eastern Europe to the United States and Italy.
