I thought the closing of the book perfectly summarized my experience with it. "I wanted to ask ... how the same thing could be so ugly and so glorious, and its words and stories so damming and brilliant." I loved the book when I was reading it, but it was a struggle to pick it up because I knew something bad was bound to happen in a book about the Holocaust with death as the narrator. Still, highly recommended to anyone who loves the power of words and stories. The narrative voice and word choices are wonderful. This one was worth the crying!
