I think this book is essential to helping people understand and wrap their heads around war and life at its core. This was like nothing I have ever read before; from the way she explains the hunger gnawing at her, to the isolation, to the reliance on others you do not know, to the utter strength she had to live each day despite the horrors of that life in Berlin.
