Beautifully written story of star-crossed lovers in WWII Germany. Elise is a concert violinist but being a woman and a Jew prevents her from finding her place in the stage spotlight and realizing her dream. She falls in love with Max, a gentile bookstore owner with a secret. You know from the start that they are doomed but you keep wanting there to be a way for them to be together. The book jumps between Max and Elise's story and over a span of 10 years that Elise has blocked from her memory. This is a solid historical novel with a slight twist of time travel and memory loss added in.
