dark emotional sad tense medium-paced

4.0

It is strange to attempt to rate a personal account of such horrors.  All I can say, is that this might be the most accurate depiction of human nature - in its best and worst. It is also a very unique and important testimony of the horrors of the holocaust, so I truly recommend everyone, but especially fellow history students, to read this.
