I read this book for the first time as a young teenager. It was one of two Uris books that started me into reading everything he wrote.
The book itself is short, it was a small paperback and I read it within a few hours.
The novel was written a very long time ago...we have already had several decades of people who deny that the horrors of WW2 ever happened. For me, it was a personal affirmation.
Do you know what it's like to be 10,11,12,13 or 14 years old, and hear your mother crying in the night? Not once, not twice, but frequently. I know!
I may never read this book again...it already has given me my lesson in life.
