Synopsis

Where the Grass no longer Grows is based on events at the French village of Oradour-sur-Glane in June 1944 when the SS massacred 642 men, women and children. This novel, the only fictional recreation of the massacre, follows the fate of a number of characters both inside and outside the village as they become aware of and respond to the unfolding horror.
