Reader's Ink discussion

Do you believe Mutti was right to keep Frau Rattelmüller’s letters from Elsie? Discuss her motivations and the possible outcomes if she hadn’t kept the secret.

I personally was some bothered that Elise was unable to see the letters from Frau Rattelmuller. When we think of the contents of the letters, Elise could have benefited and had a deeper family connection than she did. Kind of sad.
