THIS REBEL HEART - KATHERINE LOCKE KARTONIERT (TB)

The Fountains of Silence meets Spinning Silver in this rollicking tale set amid the 1956
Hungarian revolution in post-WWII Communist Budapest from Sydney Taylor Honor winner Katherine
Locke. In the middle of Budapest  there is a river. Csilla knows the river is magic. During
WWII  the river kept her family safe when they needed it most--safe from the Holocaust. But
that was before the Communists seized power. Before her parents were murdered by the Soviet
police. Before Csilla knew things about her father's legacy that she wishes she could forget.
Now Csilla keeps her head down  planning her escape from this country that has never loved her
the way she loves it. But her carefully laid plans fall to pieces when her parents are
unexpectedly  publicly exonerated. As the protests in other countries spur talk of a larger
revolution in Hungary  Csilla must decide if she believes in the promise and magic of her
deeply flawed country enough to risk her life to help save it  or if she should let it burn to
the ground. With queer representation  fabulist elements  and a pivotal but little-known
historical moment  This Rebel Heart is Katherine Locke's tour de force.
