INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Nesbet, Anne

Cloud and Wallfish

(1) 4-6 In 1989, Noah's parents whisk him from Virginia to East Berlin, where they change his name and impose rules, especially "They will always be listening." As the novel unfolds, there's growing evidence that Noah's mother isn't what he thinks she is (The Americans, anyone?). Nesbet's atmospheric page-turner is edgy, emotionally rich historical fiction; sidebars include information about East Germany and the Cold War.
