«Aber Jakob habe ich geliebt» is the young adult novel by Katherine Paterson published by Deutscher Taschenbuch-Verlag in paperback format (190 pages).
Sara Louise grows up on an island in Chesapeake Bay in the 1940s feeling that her twin Caroline has taken everything from her: friendships, studies, her mother's affection, and even her name. While the fishing community lives with the echoes of the war, Louise seeks her own identity and a place outside her sister's shadow.
German translation by Hans Erik Hausner; originally published as «Jacob Have I Loved», winner of the Newbery Medal in 1981. No. 7863 in the dtv junior/dtv pocket collection.
A reading aimed at young audiences, especially those who enjoy stories of personal growth, identity, and sibling rivalry.
