About this listen
Mary Doria Russell sets her first historical novel against this dramatic background, tracing the lives of a handful of fascinating characters. Through them, she tells the little-known but true story of the network of Italian citizens who saved the lives of 43,000 Jews during the war's final phase. The result of five years of meticulous research, A Thread of Grace is an ambitious, engrossing novel of ideas, history, and marvelous characters that will please Russell's many fans and earn her even more.
©2005 Mary Doria Russell (P)2005 Random House, Inc. Random House Audio, a division of Random House, Inc.Critic reviews
"The action moves swiftly, with impressive authority, jostling dialogue, vibrant personalities and meticulous, unexpected historical detail. The intensity and intimacy of Russell's storytelling, her sharp character writing and fierce sense of humor bring fresh immediacy to this riveting WWII saga." (Publishers Weekly)

Brilliant
I loved this story about Italy and the characters. It was heart warming and was a wonderful description of Liguria and Piedmont. Despite the sadness there was a really different take on the holocaust that showed that non-jews could make a difference by defiance
