4.55/5

Increíble, aún más emocionante por el simple hecho de ser una historia contada a través de los ojos de un niño y su inocencia, hace que cada cosa que he leído en el libro me dieran escalofríos. Como alguien que nunca ha visto la película, no vi venir
el momento final, he de ser sincero, eso me dejó impactado y destrozado, porque suponía el final que le esperaba a Shmuel, pero no esperaba que el de Bruno fuese igual.
