A review by jefecarpenter
Two Brothers by Ben Elton

3.0

I was absorbed in the book because it presents the story of the onrushing anti-semitism in Berlin in an engaging narrative, and gave more detail than I had ever absorbed before. I didn't even notice that it was a young adult novel at first, but then was fine with that, except when it got a bit over the top with sexual yearning and fumbling. But then, at three-quarters of the way through, just after Kristallnacht, it went over the top into the truly puerile. Such a shame.
