A New York Times Notable Book An Amazon Best Book of the Year A Barnes & Noble Discover Pick An Indie Next Pick A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year A Flavorwire Best Book of the Year An Elle Best Book of the Year "One of the most harrowing, powerful, and imaginative books of the year" (Anthony Doerr) about twin sisters fighting to survive the evils of World War II. Pearl is in charge of: the sad, the good, the past. Stasha must care for: the funny, the future, the bad. It's 1944 when the twin sisters arrive at Auschwitz with their mother and grandfather. In their benighted new world, Pearl and Stasha Zagorski take refuge in their identical natures, comforting themselves with the private language and shared games of their childhood. As part of the experimental population of twins known as Mengele's Zoo, the girls experience privileges and horrors unknown to others, and they find themselves changed, stripped of the personalities they once shared, their identities altered by the burdens of guilt and pain. That winter, at a concert orchestrated by Mengele, Pearl disappears. Stasha grieves for her twin, but clings to the possibility that Pearl remains alive. When the camp is liberated by the Red Army, she and her companion Feliks--a boy bent on vengeance for his own lost twin--travel through Poland's devastation. Undeterred by injury, starvation, or the chaos around them, motivated by equal parts danger and hope, they encounter hostile villagers, Jewish resistance fighters, and fellow refugees, their quest enabled by the notion that Mengele may be captured and brought to justice within the ruins of the Warsaw Zoo. As the young survivors discover what has become of the world, they must try to imagine a future within it. A superbly crafted story, told in a voice as exquisite as it is boundlessly original, MISCHLING defies every expectation, traversing one of the darkest moments in human history to show us the way toward ethereal beauty, moral reckoning, and soaring hope.

Marianne Gilbert Finnegan was born in Germany just before Adolph Hitler was elected Chancellor. Her Jewish father, Robert Gilbert, was a well known song writer and poet; her mother, a singer, came from a Lutheran family. By Nazi decree, the mixed marriage made their daughter a Mischling, or half breed. Fearing what was to come, the family fled Germany and eventually reached America. This is the story of Marianne's growing up in New York City while her father tried to write in English for the Broadway stage and her mother worked in factories to support the household.

Evi Seidemann was born into a loving family with an "Aryan" Catholic mother and a Jewish father in 1920's Berlin. All was well until life changed abruptly when Adolf Hitler came into power. Evi was labeled as a First-Degree Mischling under the Nuremberg Laws established in 1935 just prior to World War II. Tranquil childhood memories soon vanished as the lives of Evi and her loved ones were thrown into chaos. Her parents were separated. Education was interrupted. Jewish family members disappeared. Evi endured the invasion of Belgium while living in Antwerp, the bombing of Berlin, the Russian occupation, and severe postwar economic depression in Germany. After the war, Evi boarded the S.S Marine Shark in Bremerhaven to start a new life as an immigrant in the USA. She overcame language and cultural barriers to work and live in a Jewish neighborhood in Los Angeles while secretly practicing her Catholic faith. Evi translated the trauma she experienced in her years in Nazi Germany into lifelong advocacy for social justice, equal opportunity, and labor rights in her new homeland.
