The sheer power of the author's story would be sufficient to explain the force of his words; his steady confidence in his childlike voice and memory adds even greater authority to this memoir. Capable of standing up against Elie Wiesel's harrowing masterpiece <i>Night</i>, <i>Fragments</i> evokes an awesome power through the memory of a child and the words of a courageously honest man who has refused to substitute "understanding" for the inexplicable events he experienced. 1512876 1 10 1996 Fragments: Memories of a Wartime Childhood total:8|5:2|4:2|3:3|1:1| 8 28 12 2 3 0 false false Sat Jan 15 00:00:00 -0800 2000 Tue Mar 25 20:32:07 -0700 2008 Tue Mar 25 20:33:26 -0700 2008 1 0 false false Mon Aug 20 06:32:16 -0700 2007 Mon Aug 20 06:32:40 -0700 2007 3 0 false false Mon Mar 23 14:21:36 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 23 14:21:36 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jan 28 07:58:39 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 28 07:58:39 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jan 14 14:11:17 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 14 14:11:27 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Mar 20 07:51:46 -0700 2008 Thu Mar 20 07:51:46 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Mar 12 23:01:13 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 12 23:01:18 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Mon Mar 03 20:32:24 -0800 2008 Mon Mar 03 20:32:24 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sun Jan 27 21:32:59 -0800 2008 Sun Jan 27 21:32:59 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sat Nov 01 00:00:00 -0800 1997 Thu Aug 23 05:55:19 -0700 2007 Sun Sep 02 18:25:24 -0700 2007 3 0 false false Sat Aug 04 06:49:46 -0700 2007 Sat Aug 04 06:49:52 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Mon Jul 16 22:28:32 -0700 2007 Mon Jul 16 22:28:32 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1521058
