Set against the harrowing backdrop of World War II, this compelling work paints a vivid portrait of love, survival, and resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity.
Already generating buzz among critics and readers and drawing comparisons to “The Tattooist of Auschwitz” by Heather Morris and Lisa Barr’s newest novel “The Goddess of Warsaw”, Lending’s narrative tells a universal story of hope and human perseverance.
About THE UMBRELLA MAKER’S SON:
Born to a secure, middle-class Polish Jewish family, seventeen-year-old Reuven works alongside his father, an artisan businessman whose shop creates the finest handmade umbrellas in Poland. But the family’s peaceful life shatters when the Nazis invade their homeland, igniting World War II. The Nazis confiscate their business, evict them from their home, and strip away their rights, threatening the lives of the city’s entire Jewish population, including Reuven and Zelda, the girl he loves. After being separated from his family, Reuven embarks on a perilous journey through the Polish countryside, determined to reach the Kraków ghetto where he hopes to reunite with Zelda.
With exquisite attention to detail, Lending weaves a tale that transports readers to the heart of Krakow, capturing the essence of a community torn apart by war. The novel stands out not only for its historical accuracy but also for its deeply personal exploration of family dynamics amidst chaos. Lending’s background in documentary filmmaking shines through in his meticulous portrayal of the era and his ability to evoke powerful emotions.

About THE LAST FASHION HOUSE IN PARIS:
In the heart of occupied WWII Paris, an elegant fashion house is the unlikely headquarters of a daring resistance network. Behind closed doors, courageous women vie to save loved ones and strangers alike from the Nazis in this powerful story of survival, friendship and second chances.
France, 1942
Once, Paulette Leblanc spent her days flirting, shopping and drawing elegant dresses in her sketch pad. Then German tanks rolled into France, and a reckless romance turned into deep betrayal. Blaming herself for her mother’s arrest by the Gestapo, Paulette is sent away to begin a new life in Paris, working as apprentice to fashion designer Sabine Ballard. But Maison de Ballard is no ordinary fashion house. While seamstresses create the perfect couture gowns, clandestine deals and secrets take place out of sight. Mademoiselle Ballard is head of a vast network of resistance fighters–including Paulette’s coworker and friend Nicolle Cadieux–who help escort downed military men and Jewish families to safety.
Soon Paulette is recruited as a spy. Working as a seamstress by day, gathering information at glamorous parties by night, Paulette at last has a chance to earn the redemption she craves. But as the SS closes in, and Nicolle goes missing, Paulette must make life-and-death decisions about who to trust, who to love and who to leave behind…
