10. Our Mutual Friend, had not heard of

will look up - thanks for hint. Also, I haven't read Tristram Shandy.

I'm listening to "The Women in the Castle" by Jessica Shattuk.

Survivors of WWII - this time - Germans, women and their children, whose husbands were part of the German Resistance and who tried to assassinate Hitler, failed, then were killed themselves. Have read plenty of books of the era, about other war survivors, Polish, Jewish people, the English, French, Italian. But not all Germans were Nazi's, and it is interesting to learn how hard it was for these people to also survive the devastation of that war.
