Csardas

HUNGARY, 1900s.

For Amalie and Eva Ferenc, life is a whirl of picnics, trips to the theatre and evening dances. Everything is mapped out for the sisters - all they need do is find themselves the perfect love-match. But Europe stands on the brink of war, one which will upend all they know and wrench apart everyone they hold dear.

Csardas is a deftly plotted, deeply affecting saga, tracking the changing fortunes of one family across two world wars, four countries and three decades.

A story you won't easily forget, done on the scale of Gone with the Wind' Sunday Mirror
