This is obviously a very important book. It was interesting and heartbreaking to hear his story. This is to me very textbook like, which is fine, but was hard for me to fully comprehend and connect with it. I do think everyone should read this because we cannot forget.

dark informative sad tense fast-paced

It's an unbelievably dark tale told that feels like it belongs in horror fiction when you describe it or think about it, and yet it was real and lived by millions.

Haunting, and Incredibly moving.
