En rigtig god bog og generelt en rørende fortælling

[Stan · Rating 3 out of 5]

Coincidentally, this book was about the same subject as my previous read: Gerron, a German novel. In fact, there is a lot of corresponding information. Gerron even figures as a minor (and not very attractive) figure in this novel, which focuses on Danish Jews in Theresienstadt. By and large Danish Jews were treated marginally better than others, and that is reflected here. This is a good read but nothing earthshattering. A personal look at one man's experience among the horrors of the Holocaust.

Smukt skrevet, fint koreograferet mellem tunge barndomsminder om moren der bliver offer for faderen i skikkelse af en streng og ærekær dommer, der under det borgerlige ydre er dobbeltmoralsk og hyklerisk akkurat som tyskerne er det i "nutidens" Theresienstadt, mønsterbyen for det 3. Riges prominente jøder.
Jeg læste Ralph Oppenheims erindringer som barn og genkender Brask's inspiration i dem.

virkelig god bog, selvfølgelig et tungt og grimt emne,men den er simpelthen fortalt så smukt og så hårdt, og på sidste side der måtte jeg græde. læs den dog.
