Buch Details
""The Book Thief "is unsettling and unsentimental, yet ultimately poetic. Its grimness and tragedy run through the reader's mind like a black-and-white movie, bereft of the colors of life. Zusak may not have lived under Nazi domination, but "The Book Thief "deserves a place on the same shelf with "The Diary of a Young Girl "by Anne Frank and Elie Wiesel's "Night. "It seems poised to become a classic." -"USA Today""Zusak doesn't sugarcoat anything, but he makes his ostensibly gloomy subject bearable the same way Kurt Vonnegut did in "Slaughterhouse-Five": with grim, darkly consoling humor." - "Time Magazine""Elegant, philosophical and moving...Beautiful and important." - "Kirkus Reviews," Starred"An extraordinary narrative."- "School Library Journal," Starred"Exquisitely written and memorably populated, Zusak's poignant tribute to words, survival, and their curiously inevitable entwinement is a tour de force to be not just read but inhabited."- "The Horn Book Magazine," Starred"One of the most highly anticipated young-adult books in years."- "The Wall Street Journal" "From the Hardcover edition."
