Description
An ill-fated affair between Kassandra von Gotthard, a married German socialite, and her lover, a
Jewish writer, at the beginning of Hitler's ethnic cleansing campaign results in tragedy for
Kassandra's children, especially her beautiful daughter Ariana. When her father and brother
disappear, Ariana is arrested by the Reich. Facing imprisonment and repeated rape at the
hands of unscrupulous soldiers who desire to humble the lovely blond, Ariana jumps at the
opportunity to become a cook for a kind Nazi officer. Gradually, the two are able to put the
specter of war behind them and fall in love. But calamity strikes again, leaving Ariana alone
once more and running for her life. Desperately sick and pregnant, Ariana lands in New York,
part of the wave of refugees brought there by relief organizations. Sponsored, then befriended,
then betrayed, by the Liebman family, Ariana slowly recovers in time for the Christmas birth of
her son. And Noel, a kind man who loves Ariana, gives her the strength to make a life for herself
and for him, which she does, finally finding true happiness. Danielle Steel creates a tale of the
phases of life and love that we all experience against a brutal background that hopefully will not
be experienced ever again. --Alison Trinkle
Insightful reviews
Maria: Read it years ago, and i remember weeping my heart out ! Steel does that to you.. her
universality lies in writing about issues which are humanistic and real.
Carmen8094: Tempo fa tentai di leggere uno dei libri di Danielle Steel, Giramondo, ma mi fu
impossibile: lo trovai lento, noioso, prevedibile, soporifero.
Messo da parte prima di essere arrivata a metà della storia.
Eppure dò sempre una seconda - e una terza, e una quarta... - chance ad un libro che ho
cominciato.
Mai mi sarei sognata di leggere di nuovo la Steel.
Eppure, qualche settimana fa, mi è capitato di notare questo, L'anello, il libro da cui è stato
tratto un film in due puntate che ho visto illo tempore un pomeriggio d'estate.
E mi sono ricreduta sulla Steel, perchè L'anello è un libro bellissimo.
Leggermente diverso dal film. Migliore.
La storia è ambientata durante la seconda guerra mondiale, e tratta di una famiglia tedesca non
ebrea, che però è avversa al Reich, e ci mostra quanto potessero essere terribili i nazisti anche
con i loro stessi connazionali "ariani".
Certo, l'amore non manca, ma non c'è nulla di sdolcinato, e mi piace molto il fatto che l'uomo di
cui si innamora Ariana sia un ufficiale nazista, in quanto ciò mostra che non è possibile fare di
tutta l'erba un fascio, e che non tutti i militari tedeschi - ne sono sicura - condividessero la
stessa anima malata.
La mia scena preferita è quella in cui Paul, il secondo marito di Ariana, le chiede di chi sia il
bambino che aspetta.
Trascrivo lo scambio di battute:
" Di chi è questo bambino?"
[...]
"Di mio marito" gli rispose. [...]
" Io sono tuo marito, Ariana".
" E' di Manfred".

Redfox5: I first had a Danielle Steel book in my stocking when I was about 13, can't remember
what it was called but remember not being able to get through the first page and giving it away
shortly after. So I wasn't sure I would enjoy this but surprisingly I did! I found it hard to connect
with the first character Kassandra, it's hard to like someone who is having an affaire when she is
married to a likeable man. And then risking the lives of her family for her lover, who then
selfishly ends it all, leaving two children without a mother. I found Ariana more to my liking and
enjoyed her story. Thought maybe she fell in love a little to easy. But then I'm quiet fond of love
stories set against the backdrop of WWII. What she went through was page turning stuff and it
shows how everyone suffered during the war. I'm no longer looking at all the other Steel books
in my tbr which a meh feeling. Looking forward to them :)
Denisse Eyo: ok i've got simply entire the first tale yet i simply need to surrender in this booklet
the first tale is simply too a lot for me to handle. i do know what a sissy i'm yet i simply cannot
take that she misplaced her lover then she killed herself then left her complete family members
and not using a mother is too a lot for me usually, i glance on the brilliant aspect o issues yet
how am i able to for me the finishing is too a lot and that i especially think sorry for her husband
(yes, she have a lover and a husband) i suggest he love her so freaking a lot and now while she
died he sounds like he died too and now he's on their lonesome with no her. After 10 minutes of
studying it im nonetheless crying whereas im writing this. possibly sooner or later i'll proceed
with this book, probably
Alexa: My mom inspired me with this writer and i've learn on the subject of each she has written.
Tragically, considering that her son died below stipulations no family members should still move
through, her writing has misplaced the " heart" and keenness of its relocating you because it as
soon as had. i admire this novel. certainly one of her larger ones.
Gel: top Danielle metal e-book i have read. the tale is sort of a curler coaster ride. metal can
take you from chuffed to downright depressing. This quite tugged my center since it used to be
a narrative of courage, strength, loss, love, reunion, war, and family... I nearly cried within the
end.
