This was a helpful book assigned as required reading in high school. However, the author is a Zionist - he was already attempting colonization in 1946 and the genocide (Nakba) occured in 1948. There are other survivors like those in Jewish Voice for Peace who have not become the oppressor in their freedom. It's really sickening how awful this man is and has tainted the book too much for me to ever recommend it.

Very intense story about the holocaust. Reads very quickly but mostly because it’s really good.
