Ok, this is an old book that was made into a not-so-great film a few years back but can't remember it for the life of me.
Was about a kid raised in a concentration camp. Was set free by the head official because he was in love with the kid's mom. Kid's only request was for some soap.
He spends the entire book traveling across Europe trying to find his mother who lives in Switzerland I think? Finds a friend of his mom who paints I think it was and she tells him how to find her. In the course of the book also saves a girl from a fire.
Anyone know what I'm talking about?
