Rachel’s Reviews > The Zookeeper's Wife: A War Story > Status Update

This reads like a history book. I'm not sure why it's called The Zookeeper's Wife. It's more about her husband, the Jews, the Germans, and zoo itself. So far, Antonina is nearly a non-character for most of the book. Other than being partially based on her diaries, she's just a woman wandering through a story about other people. I appreciate the history and research. But it is not at all what I expected.
