Title: Skip The Last Half
Review: The author's description of Nazi attrocities is outstanding!!!!It should be required reading for every class in Holocaust Literature. The book also revealed a great deal of information about the Jewish ghetto in Riga, Latvia that could almost be a book in itself.However, halfway through the book I became very disappointed. The plot degenerated into a cheap thriller. Such a cleverly researched book should never have been coupled with such a poorly written plot.The horrors of The Riga Ghetto recently made news because of an investigation by The Latvian Holocaust Commission. Unfortunatly, even sixty years after the horrors of The Riga Ghetto, The Government of Latvia couldn't overcome it's antisemitism and Abraham Foxman of The World Jewish Congress resigned from the commission.
Is the review positive or negative?
