I grew up on my dads stories of what he saw in Germany during WW2, stories that took hold in my brain and just never let go. This is a book that is a must read for any age, should be mandatory in schools actually...
The title might throw you as it did me... but when you read where it stems from you'll get it, AND agree.
WHY CAN"T SOMEONE JUST DIE....is a big book that is written in clear concise short sections. Easy to follow, horrifying to have to understand, you'll smile shed a tear, become a cheerleader and root for this family that just never gave up. Two brothers lived due to the strength and ingenuity of their mother, and eventually the determination of both parents. This story is their personal struggle of survival in a horrible time.
