It is set in WWII . It is cleverly written and displays the horrors of the holocaust in a subtle way. It keeps ahead of you , until it delivers the last final pages , which are heartrending
I thought it was a great book. It is almost one of a kind , and The author , even though the book being less than 280 pages long , put two years of effort into writing it. I hope you will read it , because it will never become boring :] This post has been edited by encryptedwrath: Jan 16 2008, 07:00 PM |

Sounds like a pretty awesome book.
I might look for it some time. |

Yeah, I've read it. The end is sad, and the authors use of repetition is good. I'm going to cry...
