Notes

Description
"Nine months after Hitler takes Austria, a ten-year-old girl leaves Vienna aboard a train that transports several hundred children to safety in England. For the next seven years she finds herself living in "other people's houses": the homes of the wealthy Orthodox Jewish Levines, the working-class Hoopers, and two elderly sisters who inhabit a formal Victorian household. Told from the perspective of a child, Other People's Houses offers a depiction of the habits and customs of those who gave her refuge, and a memorable portrait of the postwar immigrant experience."--Jacket
