About the book
Title: Waiting for AnyaAuthor: Michael MorpurgoWhat it’s about: Set in a small French mountain village near the Spanish border during WWII, the story follows villagers who hide Jewish children and help guide them across the mountains to safety. The narrative is anchored by a young protagonist drawn into the clandestine rescue network and by the emotional thread of waiting for Anya.How closely the film follows the book
The adaptation broadly preserves the novel’s core setting, premise, and main emotional through-line. Compared with the more intimate, inward-focused tone of the book, the film tends to enlarge certain plot elements and heighten onscreen suspense and action.Goodreads
