Book Reviews of The Holocaust Kingdom: A Memoir
Book Review: A Tragic Story
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read dozens of holocaust books over the years, mostly non-fiction accounts. I must say this book, more than most, really brought home to me what it must have been like to endure the horror of living in the Warsaw Ghetto. Some of the scenes Donat describes, I literally had to put the book down, they were so tragic. Donat had access to many different streets within the Ghetto so it is almost like he is giving you a tour of the daily occurences that transpired. This book reinforces the belief that sometimes it is more honorable to die than to commit certain acts, such as some of the panic-driven people were desperate enough to commit. The killing of the children was indeed horrific. ... I am glad he, his wife, and son survived the war, but I know it was at a great cost.
