Negative Positive
Title: The best novel I've ever read
Review: There is a Jewish legend that there is a line of just men. This novel chronicles the tragic demise of the last of those just men (hence the title) at the hands of the Nazis. The story is thick with struggle and triumph, good and evil, joy and misery, but is never maudlin or melodramatic. Schwartz-Bart's words are like brush strokes in a painting, creating a cinematic cast, landscape, and sweeping emotion. In addition to being a gripping intrapsychic read, the book is an excellent individual-level history of the Holocaust--though fiction, it is remarkably true to reality and detail
