Fault Lines, by Nancy Huston (2006)

Winner of the The Prix Femina, Nancy Huston has created a well-crafted plot told from the unusual perspective of four six-year-old children. Sequencing their stories to travel back in time and space, the story spans six decades and four countries. Huston book unfolds a family history that contains many secrets, linking back to Heinrich Himmler's Lebensborn movement of World War II.

This is one of the few books I wanted to start reading again after finishing the first time, to recapture the threads of the story that are woven throughout the book, providing clues to the childhood secrets of the woman we first meet in the book as the eccentric world-famous singer Erra.
