Summary:
"In the mid-1930s,
Irmina
, an ambitious young German, moves to London. At a cocktail party, she meets Howard Green, one of the first black students at Oxford, who, like
Irmina
, is working towards an independent existence. However, their relationship comes to an abrupt end when
Irmina
, constrained by the political situation in Hitler's Germany, is forced to return home. As war approaches and her contact with Howard is broken, it becomes clear to
Irmina
that prosperity will only be possible through the betrayal of her ideals. In the award-winning
Irmina
, Barbara Yelin presents a troubling drama about the tension between integrity and social advancement, reflecting with compassion and intelligence on the complicity that results from the choice, conscious or otherwise, to look away."--From publisher.
