Dancing with Eva book. I thought Alan Judd's Dancing with Eva had a lot of potential when I first discovered it, but the reality was a bit of a letdown. And by bit, I mean my first thought on finishing the book was a self-congratulatory felicitation on not having thrown the book at my wall. Thematically speaking, there are a few interesting things going on in this piece, but the style and tone of the narrative left me bored and disinterested.

Then she could have tried to forget it, since he surely would not have written again. If you don’t hear from someone for half a century, then suddenly you do, you can assume he’s probably not going to pester you for a reply.

In April 1945 Hitler's bunker was the last place Edith Mecklenburg wanted to be. But she had no choice: as the secretary of Eva Braun she had to stay until the end. But as it turned out, Edith was one of the few who escaped the bunker and she started a new life in England.

Sixty years later - she's now a widow and a grandmother - the days in the bunker seem only bad memories. But when she receives a letter from Hans Beck, a soldier she knew from that dark period, Edith is forced to reconsider her past and to ask herself if she's really so innocent as she thinks she is.
