I read the book in two days such is its power in bringing to life a period in history that can never be forgotten or allowed to occur again.
The over arching theme is the importance of love, friendship, compassion, resilience, empathy & resourcefulness, which ultimately overcomes prejudice & hatred.
I was moved to tears on more than one occasion & would recommend anyone who has picked this book up & put it down without buying to make a beeline for it the next time you’re buying a book.
