Got this book 10 years ago for a college class. I picked a terrible time to read it (as i’m trying to finish as many books at the end of the year and I read nonfiction the slowest) but it's also a perfect time to read it (as a genocide inspired by a genocide inspired by this genocide is currently happening). The line or paragraph that sums it all up is along the lines of every holocaust is similar in many ways and unique in its own way. Above all each one is its own tragedy. We must take the time to learn about them all. We cannot look away. History always comes, either by knocking or burning down the door.
