This was the first book that opened my eyes to the horrors of the Holocaust. I read it at 14 and when I reached the ending I sat for at least an hour on my bed thinking "what the hell happened". It inspired me to lean more about this time period. Very beautiful review!
Geat video!!
I am actually opposed to this book. The author could have chosen a kid from the nearby city or so. Bruno would have been so indoctrinated that it makes the whole story fall apart
That's a very valid point. I hadn't considered this. I think the reason he had to be German was for the twist at the end
Maybe I'm in the minority but I just didn't like this book. Historical inaccuracies aside....I just didn't feel much of a connection, not even at the end. Sad? Yes. But also a little shallow IMO. Maybe the movie is more powerful? Guess I'll find out
