Alice Austen
Bloomsbury presents 33 Place Brugmann by Alice Austen, read by Shiromi Arserio, Billie Fulford-Brown, Danielle Cohen, Nicholas Boulton, Matthew Lloyd Davies, James Meunier, Jilly Bond, Simon Slater, Joshua Riley, and Raphael Corkhill.
An unforgettable historical debut set in Second World War Brussels: exploring love, resistance and courage in all their forms
‘I adored it … It finds courage and love amidst the ruins, and I read with my heart in my mouth’ Rachel Joyce
‘A beautiful and deeply engaging novel' Ann Patchett
‘A richly textured, finely written, deeply thoughtful novel’ William Boyd
‘Historical fiction at its immersive, absorbing best’ Paula McLain
Charlotte Sauvin has always seen the world differently. At home on 33 Place Brugmann, in the heart of Brussels, her father and her closest friends and neighbours – the Raphaëls from the fourth floor, and Masha from the fifth – have ensured her secret is safe. But when the Nazis invade Belgium, and Masha and the Raphaëls disappear, Charlotte must navigate her new world alone.
Who can Charlotte trust in this world - where everyone is watching, and everyone is harbouring their own secrets? As the months pass, and the shadow of war darkens, Charlotte and her neighbours must face what – and who – truly matters to them most – and summon the courage to fight for more than just survival.
With soaring imagination and profound intimacy, 33 Place Brugmann is a captivating and devastating celebration of the power of love, courage and art in times of great threat.
