Read 3 times. Last read October 24, 2017.
This is one of those reads that stays with you a long time. I was really touched by the story-line, which I found impressive and interesting. The way Mrs. Rubens wove the stories of the brothers through time and each time its own circumstances. I love this book, it is deeply emotional and gives us an inside in the Jewish life in Russia in the 18th century and all the difficulties they had, same goes for the pre WWII period in England, than during WWII in Germany and the last period is in Russia again, full circle. A beautiful inside look at anti Semitism tendencies and how they cope with it.
