"In this novel, some of the great themes of 1930s Europe are refracted through the eyes of a child who is both naive and wise beyond her years." "Kully knows some things you don't learn at school. She knows the right way to roll a cigarette and pack a suitcase. She knows that cars are more dangerous than lions. She knows that you can't enter a country without a passport or visa. And she knows that she and her parents can't go back to Germany again. But there are also things she doesn't understand, like why there might be a war in Europe - just that men named Hitler, Mussolini, and Chamberlain are involved. Little Kully is far more interested in where their next meal will come from and the ladies who seem to buzz around her father. Meanwhile she and her parents roam through Europe from country to country as their visas expire, money runs out, and hotel bills mount." "Irrepressible Kully, her charming, feckless father, and her nervy, fragile mother are brought to life in this masterpiece of world literature."--BOOK JACKET.
