Based on real people and events, All That I Am is a gripping novel by Anna Funder, the acclaimed author of Stasiland. Equal parts a love story, thriller and testament to heroism, it evokes books like Irene Nemirovsky's Suite Francaise and Bernard Schlink's The Reader – intelligent, powerful novels that appeal to a wide audience.
When Hitler comes to power in 1933, a group of friends and lovers, united in their resistance to the madness and tyranny of Nazism, flee the country. Dora, passionate and fearless; her lover, the great playwright Ernst Toller; her younger cousin Ruth, and Ruth's husband, Hans, find refuge in London. But England is not the safe haven they think it is, and a chilling act of betrayal will tear them apart.
