Review title: A highly emotional work with a hidden agenda
Product review: Undoubtedly interesting as a recreation of the shtetl life in Poland before 1939, this book turns into a wild anti-Polish fantasy while describing the events in Eishyshok between 1941 and 1945. Over the last decade Yaffa Eliach has produced several markedly different versions of the presumed "pogrom" in her hometown, none of which bears any significant resemblance to historical truth. The reader will be well advised to consult more balanced and scholarly texts on the subject, for example, Tadeusz Piotrowski's "Poland's Holocaust" (McFarland & Company, 1998, pp.91-94), or a collective work "The story of two shtetls: Bransk and Ejszyszki. Part 2" (The Polish Educational Foundation in North America: Toronto-Chicago, 1998.)
