The book grabbed my attention at the very beginning. The start off was brilliant and pretty relevant to the plot. I absolutely loved how the author portrayed the horrifying history of holocaust through the memory of a young Jewish girl. The emotion behind the piece is very much visible, and is capable of making a way to the reader's heart. The story is easy to follow and even easier to feel. We can barely imagine how many Rayas have left the world with millions of untold stories. I finished the book in a single go, and it did not take much effort. I was simply overwhelmed.
The most terrifying fact is probably that the cruelty is not over yet. The world is still filled with demons, and innocent people are going through unimaginable sufferings every single moment, only because of their faith, race, caste or color.
If you want to take a quick look at the frightening past (or even the equally shocking reality for many people around the world), you should check out this book.
