Short Knife

A distinctive and engrossing tale (David Almond)

Young Mai and her sister, Haf, are suspicious of the Saxon soldiers arriving in their village. Proved rightly so by a brutal attack on their family home, the sisters must seek a new place to belong, encountering betrayal, love, and everything in between in the process. A celebration of difference and finding your own way, when even speaking your mother tongue can be dangerous.

O poveste distinctiva si captivanta (David Almond) Tanara Mai si sora ei, Haf, sunt suspiciosi ca soldatii sasi sosesc in satul lor. Dovedite pe buna dreptate printr-un atac brutal asupra locuintei familiei lor, surorile trebuie sa caute un nou loc de apartenenta, intampinand tradare, dragoste si tot ceea ce exista in acest proces.
