From the highly acclaimed, award-winning author of *Floating in My Mother's Palm* comes a stunning novel about ordinary people living in extraordinary times.
Trudi Montag is a *Zwerg*—a dwarf—short, undesirable, different, the voice of anyone who has ever tried to fit in. Eventually she learns that being different is a secret that all humans share—from her mother who flees into madness, to her friend Georg whose parents pretend he's a girl, to the Jews Trudy harbors in her cellar.
Ursula Hegi brings us a timeless and unforgettable story in Trudi and a small town, weaving together a profound tapestry of emotional power, humanity, and truth.
