have this one to read on the list, jus not got around to it as feel it'll be a very grim read indeed.
Thank you for the comment. The book was not as grim as I thought it would be.It caused me to ask how and why and all the other questions about WWII that such a book provokes.
Sounds better! Have others of his earmarked & really will give one a go soon.... jus sooooo many good books out there.
This was the the first Uris book that I had a pleasure of reading, and I loved it. I recall the narrative and character development was more cohesive compared to his 'Armageddon'. A heart-breaking story. Roman Polanski's 'The Pianist' also captures this drama to some extent, and one could draw a number of correlations between the protagonists of this novel and the film.
