Read by Stephanie Racine.
First published in 1934, Crooked Cross by Sally Carson is at its heart a love story, but it is also an extraordinarily prescient account of the rise of the Nazi regime in Germany seen through the eyes of the fictional Kluger family.

Crooked Cross is part of the Persephone Audiobook Collection produced in partnership with Macmillan Collector's Library.
