What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘one of the most powerful and emotionally charged novels I have ever read.’ – Anita Heiss * Sydney Morning Herald Best Reads of the Year for 2023 *
‘intense, heartbreaking and rewarding’ * Better Reading *
‘The Night Travelers is an atmospheric, absorbing, heartfelt tale … stays with you long after you finish the final page.’ * What’s Better than Books *
‘A moving historical saga woven from threads of persecution, guilt, sacrifice and survival.’ – Sydney Morning Herald
‘A stunning multigenerational story involving WWII Germany and the Cuban Revolution … Correa makes palpable the sacrifices made by Ally and Lilith for their children’s survival, and the taut pacing keeps the pages flying. Readers will be deeply moved.’ * Publishers Weekly (starred review) *
‘A bloodline of stubborn, courageous women navigates the horrors of World War II and its rippling aftereffects … [The characters] are complex and singular; their interiors are richly drawn and illustrate how history unfolds in increasingly complex ways within individual psyches despite passing time and space. Readers will appreciate the emotional payoff.’ * Kirkus Reviews *
‘The Night Travelers depicts the dangers mixed race people faced under the Nuremberg Race Laws of the 1930s, and the fateful voyage of the St Louis liner to Cuba. Based on historical events, Armando has written a tale of love and survival, and the trauma of displacement in a new land as secrets and pain of the past follow new generations. A very good read.’ – Maya Lee, co-author of The Nazis Knew My Name
