So happy you enjoyed Lilac Girls, Jeanne! My next book is a prequel to Lilac Girls, which takes place during WWI. Can't wait to share it!

I first want to thank you for writing this amazing book and for sharing the stories of these women. It is so interesting (deeply and intensely) to me to read their different perspectives and to see how their lives are impacted by this war. On your website, I read about Caroline, but I am seeing it mentioned that two of the characters are actual people. Is this true? Who is the other one? Incredible book!

I found myself hoping that Kasia would escape post WWII Poland before she was unable to leave and locked behind the Iron Curtain. I spent several weeks last summer in Leipzig, Germany at a German teachers' seminar and learned a lot about what life with the East German Stasi had been. The parallels to concentration camps controls made me want Kasia to get out and not suffer twice. How did you feel about this?
