“Even death has a heart.”

This book is a poetry disguised as prose.

Such beautiful sentences, an unusual narrator (you don't come across death sharing his feelings every day), a phenomenal story - heartbreaking to say the least while also maintaining an air of inspiration, a brilliant depiction of History's one of the most devastating periods - living in Germany during World War II.

I cannot recommend this highly enough, people.
