Summary: A Night Divided

186 Words1 Page

A Night Divided took place in Berlin, Germany, a little bit after the World War II time. Greta’s (the main character) dad escapes the brick Berlin Wall, which was used to divide West Germany and East Germany. Now Greta is destined to find a way with her family to escape the extremely difficult route to freedom. The main reason on why the Berlin Wall was put up was because, Germany was not happy with the amount of people leaving East Germany to West Germany. West Germany contained the French Sector, British Sector, and American Sector; and East Germany contain just the Soviet Sector. The overall mood of the book was: depressing, sad, exiting, and tense. I think that the popular song “Hello” by Adele would be perfect for the connection of music
