John O. (buzzby) - , reviewed on 12/25/2017 + 6062 more book reviews

One of the better books I've read in a while. The best adjective I saw in reviews was "non-hectoring". He wrote it 60 years after the war, and he is now a lawyer, which may explain why it isn't maudlin, self-pitying, religious, or vengeful. The "luck" he had consisted mostly of knowing German and Polish, and looking like an echte deutscher, as well as parents who were pretty practical when it came to survival.
