A review by gloechic
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne

3.0

I would have rated this lower as others have if it weren't for two things: it being called "a fable" at the beginning & the author's admission that Bruno was an extremely naive child. I personally think he sounded more like a 6 year old than 9, & it was a bit annoying. I got the feel that this book was written for children & not adults. It very much simplified a complex situation. However, it did have a powerful ending.
