Magical reading

This book can only be described as pure, magical reading. Athough set in the period of the second world war, the focus of the story lies on the two title characters Daniel and Esther, and their relationship which developes amidst the uncontrollable circumstances they find themselves in. Although it may appear to be the usual story of childlike love developing against all odds, do not be misled. It is written with such insight and delicate, spellbinding ease - you cannot help but become totally involved in this story.The characters are so real and their developement (personally and in their relationship)throughout the story is tenderly orchestrated to perfection. The only thing that I regretted after I finished this book was that it wasnt any longer and that I didn't have my own copy. It will enchant and surprise anyone and i highly recommend it.
