Clara Herzog is a privileged, intelligent, and thoughtful young woman whose world is changed forever when 1930s Vienna is swept up by the dark prelude of the Second World War.  An unforgettable character, and Clara is a novel about family bonds, women's deep friendships, courage, and love that endures even in unimaginable times.

A sweeping tale of love and friendship, Kurt Palka's Clara is a winning choice for fans of Irene Nemirovsky's Suite Francaise, Bernard Schlink's The Reader, and Nancy Richler's The Imposter Bride.
