Review title: An Extremely Moving Story
Product review: Somehow, it seems like you can never read too many Holocaust memoirs. It is like we can never fully get used to the unhumane crimes committed in that terrible time, no matter how much we read...and "I Have Lived a Thousand Years" is no exception to that rule. By "literary" definitions, it probably be considered a rather unremarkable novel, but its searing story alone makes it a worthwhile read. Somehow, Elli's simple, stark descriptions only serve to heighten the effect of this book, for as I was reading it, I mourned with Elli at the loss of her childhood home, rejoiced with her as she and her mother somehow survived, and literally cried with her as she realized the tragic fate of children in the concentration camps. This memoir serves as a reminder of Auschwitz, of the cattle car rides, of the Holocaust-and of an innocent childhood voice telling a horrific story that must never be forgotten.
