Great story that will touch your heart and stay with you! - Just finished this book and it was such a great read - it was the first book of Kelly's I've read. I ordered three more of her books. I was inspired by the book, "Nightingale" by Kristin Hannah which focused around WWII - I've been hooked on historical fiction for a while now - so much better than romance fiction! I ran across this book when looking for more historical fiction and it did not disappoint. I could hardly put it down! So many interesting characters with different personalities. I appreciate being able to learn from the author's research - it is hard to fathom what transpired with the Holocaust - so much evil, hatred and brutality inflicted on the Jews and beyond! I also really appreciated the storyline with Alice's family and her son who was on the autism spectrum. I have an adopted niece who deals with autism and it can be such a challenge for both parents and the person themselves. I loved how her husband came through by the end of the story and there was hope for a more balanced home life for them all. Just a GREAT book all around!! Review: Historical Fiction at its Finest! - Absolutely enthralling! I enjoy historical fiction, and you will find so much history in Kelly Rimmer's pages, that you may push yourself to even look further into those terrible times and how little those of us today may know of the hardships and atrocities that occurred. She ties the story together through a grandmother-granddaughter relationship. Hanna (Alina) and Alice have been close, but now as her grandmother's life may be drawing to an end, Alice discovers that there is much she did not know about her grandmother's life. This is the book's premise. Tied in, is the relationship of Alice and her husband, along with their autistic son, and gifted daughter and the life that Alice herself has sacrificed for what she believed to be their best interest. As Alice finds strength within her own life, she is able to help untangle hidden secrets of her grandparents former lives during the war. The story alternates between Alice and Alina, making for a flowing story-telling experience, and one that will stick with me for some time. Note: For those that have reading choices geared toward sensitivity or perhaps prefer "clean" reading, this book is able to cover horrific acts, sad situations, draw tears and anger and joy, all without being graphic in any way. There is no vulgarity or other writing that can be offensive to some readers. Yet, the book is in no way a light read, nor diminished by the elimination of such vulgarity. It is a solid read that is hard to put down. I highly recommend it and am already thinking of which of my friends I can share it with! Please take a chance and read The Things We Cannot Say by Kelly Rimmer. You will NOT be disappointed. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,119 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #17 in World War II Historical Fiction #20 in Historical World War II & Holocaust Fiction #102 in Women's Domestic Life Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (58,930) | | Dimensions | 5.94 x 1.14 x 8.93 inches | | Edition | Original | | ISBN-10 | 1525823566 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1525823565 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 432 pages | | Publication date | March 19, 2019 | | Publisher | Graydon House | ## Images ![The Things We Cannot Say - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811np47O5yL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book will not disappoint!

However, war comes in between that happening so fast. He leaves with the intent of going to college in Warsaw. BUT national soldiers take over and bring, fear, hate, and despair. Alina lives on a farm and the soldiers come by to monitor what is going on. There is a second story line of the present running along the war story. The lead is Alice, a stay at home mom. She has two children, a gifted girl, and a difficult autism son, Eddie. The dad, Wade, tends to favor the girl. An entire section goes on about their relationship. I think in my opinion it was distracting and not necessary. Alice's Grandma, Babcia, had a massive stroke and can not communicate except on a device. She continually, shows Alice, Babcia fire Tomasz. She wants Alice to go to Poland and find him. She does and it is an interesting part of the story. Alina, the war part of the story is somewhat sheltered because of her parents. She notices smoke in the distance and no one tells her about the holocaust and the news. She becomes aware of the persecution of the jews. The story has heartbreaking parts, uplifting parts, horrifying and cruel parts. The only part I had to stop was to keep track of the ton of characters and who relates to who. But, if you love reading war stories, while not as factually written as other books. It has what it was like for the families and people to try and live thru the war in Poland. As well as the ones who don't make it. I recommend reading the book! ## Frequently Bought Together - The Things We Cannot Say: A WWII Historical Fiction Novel - The German Wife: A Novel - The Warsaw Orphan: A WWII Historical Fiction Novel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/140717942-the-things-we-cannot-say](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/140717942-the-things-we-cannot-say) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
