Christine by Elizabeth Von Arnim
QR code
"Christine" by Elizabeth Von Arnim is an epistolary novel published in 1917 under the pseudonym "Alice Cholmondeley." Presented as letters from an English girl studying in Germany to her mother, it chronicles the mounting tensions from May to August 1914 as World War I approaches. Christine desperately attempts to flee Germany for neutral Switzerland, but tragedy strikes before she can reach safety. Initially marketed as authentic correspondence, the novel became powerful anti-German
propaganda, though its true authorship remained a closely guarded secret. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
