Other People's Houses: A Novel

Originally published in 1964 and hailed by critics including Cynthia Ozick and Elie Wiesel, Other People€s Houses is Lore Segal€s internationally acclaimed semi-autobiographical first novel.

Nine months after Hitler takes Austria, a ten-year-old girl leaves Vienna aboard a children€s transport that is to take her and several hundred children to safety in England. For the next seven years she lives in €œother people€s houses,€ the homes of the wealthy Orthodox Jewish Levines, the working-class Hoopers, and two elderly sisters in their formal Victorian household. An insightful and witty depiction of the ways of life of those who gave her refuge, Other People€s Houses is a wonderfully memorable novel of the immigrant experience.
