A Riveting and Scary Read!

The book is of Walter’s life and the troubles that taunt him often since the time he left studying. The book is a reflection of the inhuman nature of the Nazis and the mass murder of Jews. The book also showcases some people who have shown their ugly colors to survive under Nazi rule.

There are some places in the book explained were human Jews were cheated and manipulated by the SS people as they promised once the war situation subsides they will be sent back to their homes. And for their safety and security their money, jewels, and valuables have been saved. But, the Jews were sent to gas chambers and mass graves were their final homes.

Journalist and broadcaster Jonathan Freedland is a weekly columnist for the Guardian, where he edits the paper’s op-ed pages and chairs its Editorial Board.

A SHORT WALK ON THE MEMORY LANE

Nostalgia is both an ache and a draught, a draught more aptly as it provides the required energy to the wistful heart and patiently remains one’s undeterred friend during lonesome times and even transporting one to the blissful world of memories far away from the tension-ridden beguiling present.

Distantly, what caught their breadth was the seraphic view of snow-capped Himalayas at the backdrops, partially covered in the thin blanket of white clouds. The air was crisp with a hint of Nostalgia as the sound of the nearby streams whispered tales of their past.
