This is easily a 5* book, but I did not enjoy the reading of it. So why did I read the story of this absolutely brutal horror? For the same reason I spent a day at the Holocaust Museum - to honor and remember the victims. In her epilogue, the author talked about 3 lessons to be learned, and she feels that the third lesson is the most distressing of all: how frighteningly easy it is for the human mind to accept genocide when we are removed from it.
