HTML:<p><b>After World War II, two concentration camp survivors begin a battle for love in this heartwarming, historical novel based on a true story.</b></p> <p>It's 1945, and Miklós is looking for a wife. The fact that he has six months left to live doesn't discourage him—he isn't one to let small problems like that stand in the way, especially not after he's survived a concentration camp. Currently marooned in an all-male sanatorium in Sweden, and desperate to get out, he acquires the names of the 117 Hungarian women also recovering in Sweden and writes each of them a letter in his beautiful cursive hand. Luckily for him, Lili decides to write back...</p> <p>Drawn from the real-life letters of Péter Gárdos's parents, and reminiscent of the film <i>Life Is Beautiful</i>, <i>Fever at Dawn</i> is a vibrant, ribald, and unforgettable tale, showing the death-defying power of the human will to live and to love.</p> <p><b>"<i>Fever at Dawn</i> has the sweetness of <i>The Rosie Project</i> and the pathos of <i>The Fault in Our Stars</i>...A book to fall in love with."—<i>The Herald Sun</i></b></p> <p><b>"At once heartrending and lighthearted, this romance covers enormous ground in love and war, joy and tragedy." — Shelf Awareness, starred review</b></p><b>"A riveting and high-spirited journey from the brink of death toward life, [<i>Fever at Dawn</i>] asserts the power of love."—Julie Orringer, author of <i>The Invisible Bridge</i></b>.
