Summary

A country torn apart by war. Two siblings divided by fate.

Italy, 1938. Mussolini is in power and war is not far away....

Clara and Pippo are just children: quiet, thoughtful Clara is the older sister; Pippo, the younger brother, is forever chatting. The family has only recently arrived in the city carrying their few possessions.

When Mamma goes missing early one morning, both Clara and Pippo go in search of her. Clara turns right; Pippo left.

As a result of the choices they make that morning, their lives will be changed forever.

Diana Rosie’s Pippo and Clara tells the story of a family and a country divided. But will Clara and Pippo - and their mother - find each other again?

Compelling story, nicely written, great narration.

Pippo and Clara is Diana Rosie’s second novel and like her first book, is an utterly compelling story that will keep you hooked to the end. Bert Seymour and Emily Bruni really bring Pippo and Clara to life. I’d recommend this book, perfect for that holiday or staycation.
