A review by phenomenal_woman
The Betrayers by David Bezmozgis

3.0

characters: Baruch Kotler, Leora, Miriam, Benzion, Dafna, Chaim Tankilevich, Svetlana, Nina Semonovna

The first of my Giller short list reads, I enjoyed this novel, although I feel I missed a lot not knowing Jewish/Russian relations and history. Nevertheless, the micro-glimpse in to one day that told a lifetime of wrongs and injustices was incredibly well-structured and finely researched.
