Unique perspective of rise of the Third Reich. I really enjoyed the letters as it highlighted the destruction of personal relationships during this time.
Packs a punch in a tiny package. My librarian daughter handed me this one, sure that I had already read it at some point. I hadn't, but I fixed that immediately.
This is a short, powerful read (more short story than novel, in my counting) and it will stay with you after you close the cover.

Two friends, a German man who has returned to Germany and a Jewish man in San Francisco, write letters back and forth while fascism and Hitler are on the rise. It shows how quickly Hitler and Nazism destroyed with the hate.
Poignant, and a necessary read.

I first saw this book performed onstage in Catalan, and knew i had to read it.
The book doesn't disappoint. Its a slim one but worth every word.
Like the stage show i know this will stay with me a long time.

Unsettling, obviously… a little weird giving a book like this a rating
Not only do I love a book written in letters but this was a powerful short story about two friends on the opposite side of a war.
