The Book Thief

 

Story of the Germans, story of a Jew

Story of life and death

And books, of course, too.

 

Though take place in Germany of WW II, thought holocaust is woven through all its pages, its talk of it only by hint. It talks of life and love, of growing and lesson. The story of this time, those hard and dark days are a great background to emphasize the “whiteness” of the human spirit.

Beautifully written, strikingly touching.
