I am bawling my eyes out. John Boyne, thank you for writing this. ❤️ I‘ve read many books about the Holocaust (I‘m German so I have been confronted with this topic from very early on) and this is by far my favorite one. I love the bond Schmuel and Bruno share and Bruno‘s innocence. While reading some particular scene I‘ve felt terribly guilty of what my country once has done. I wish I could undo all the horrible things that happened to innocent people ( including all people who were affected by the Holocaust, not only the Jews).

the movie took my breath away -- great review!
Wipe your eyes, this book is a sickly Disneyworld description of the actual horrors. The boy would have been euthanized as he appears seriously retarded.
I respect opinion but may I point out NO 9yr old is THAT ignorant.Unless he has zero contact from the outside world.
whåt thë füčk?
My thoughts exactly
