Book tip: The book thief by Markus Zusak

Advertisement

The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak, is a different book in many ways. The story is narrated by Death and is set in Nazi Germany, but as if Nazi Germany is just something going on in the background. If you are a nine-year-old girl, you have nothing to compare it to and Nazi Germany is quite normal.

"Buy it, borrow it or steal it"

Hiding a Jew in the basement is dangerous, but not insanely strange. Many hate Jews and follow the Fuhrer through the Hitler Youth, others focus on stealing books. It is not so bad as SvD writes "Buy it, borrow it or steal it, but above all: read it".
