Eva Müller
A Brief Encounter
Eva Müller was a German expatriate who found her convictions and her heartstrings deeply intertwined with the fate of Paris during its occupation. Born in 1909 into a progressive family in Berlin, Eva grew to embody the intellectual and compassionate virtues that were increasingly at odds with the regime of her home country.
By 1940, Eva had become a central figure in the humanitarian efforts within the city, her every action underlined by a profound empathy and a discreet determination. The news of Lucas's passing was a burden shared in the silent communion of those who fight against the encroaching darkness, her composure a veneer over the grief that unified so many in those trying times.
