The secure world of a well-established and apparently perfectly assimilated Jewish writer living in an Austrian town before World War II, disintegrates under the force of political and social realities that daily sanctify the old and endemic Austrian anti-Semitism. We learn what we learn through Bruno, the thirteen-year-old son of the family, whose spare and uninflected account discloses the slow onset of disaster. His father, a successful ... read more

"Another fortuitous discovery at Half Price Books...
I picked this up and flipped through it and could tell instantly that it was a beautifully written novel with a Holocaust theme. It starts with an idyllic country journey and a foreboding train trip home for a Jewish mother and son. I just started this.

I know this is an absurdly high rating for a book I just started, but I'll certainly adjust...."
