Learn moreUna poderosa novela de amistad dentro de un circo ambulante durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, El vagón de los huérfanos presenta a dos mujeres extraordinarias y sus historias desgarradoras de sacrificio y supervivencia. Noa, de dieciséis años, ha sido expulsada en desgracia después de quedar embarazada de un soldado nazi y verse forzada a renunciar a su bebé. Vive en los altos de una pequeña estación del ferrocarril, que limpia para ganarse su estancia allí. Cuando Noa descubre un furgón en el cual hay docenas de bebés judíos que son llevados a un campo de concentración, recuerda al hijo que le fue arrebatado. Y en un instante que cambiará el curso de su vida, se roba uno de los bebés y huye en medio de la noche en medio de la nieve. La joven encuentra refugio en un circo alemán, pero necesita aprender el trapecio ondulante para poderse mezclar con los demás sin que la descubran, sin hacer caso del resentimiento de Astrid, la principal trapecista. Rivales al principio, Noa y Astrid crean muy pronto un poderoso lazo entre ellas. Pero al ver que la fachada que las protege se vuelve cada vez más tenue, Noa y Astrid deben decidir si su amistad es suficiente para salvarse mutuamente, o si los secretos que arden entre ellas lo van a destruir todo.
Pam Jenoff was born in Maryland and raised outside Philadelphia. Upon receiving her masters in history from Cambridge, she accepted an appointment as Special Assistant to the Secretary of the Army. The position provided a unique opportunity to witness and participate in operations at the most senior levels of government, including helping the families of the Pan Am Flight 103 victims secure their memorial at Arlington National Cemetery, observing recovery efforts at the site of the Oklahoma City bombing and attending ceremonies to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of World War II at sites such as Bastogne and Corregidor.
Following her work at the Pentagon, Pam moved to the State Department. In 1996 she was assigned to the U.S. Consulate in Krakow, Poland. It was during this period that Pam developed her expertise in Polish-Jewish relations and the Holocaust. Working on matters such as preservation of Auschwitz and the restitution of Jewish property in Poland, Pam developed close relations with the surviving Jewish community.
Pam is the author of The Kommandant's Girl, which was an international bestseller and nominated for a Quill award, as well as The Winter Guest, The Diplomat's Wife, The Ambassador’s Daughter, Almost Home, A Hidden Affair and The Things We Cherished. She also authored a short story in the anthology Grand Central: Original Postwar Stories of Love and Reunion. She lives outside Philadelphia with her husband and three children.
