Seventeen-year-old Karel wishes something, anything would come along to shake up his dull bourgeois existence, even war. Soon his wish will be granted?.? ???As Hitler launches an invasion of the Netherlands,?? Karel ?is almost killed in an air raid and falls in love for the first time, with the daughter of his uncle's Jewish mistress. But the bliss this passion brings is short lived, as the girl and her mother are forced to flee for their lives before the Nazi advance... Told with subtle humour and great empathy and inspired by the author's own experiences,? Fall, Bomb, Fall?convincingly captures the heart-breaking disillusionment of a teenager at the outbreak of the Second World War.
