Its grimness and tragedy run through the reader's mind like a black-and-white movie, bereft of the colors of life. Zusak may not have lived under Nazi domination, but The Book Thief deserves a place on the same shelf with The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank and Elie Wiesel's Night. It seems poised to become a classic." - USA Today "Zusak doesn't sugarcoat anything, but he makes his ostensibly gloomy subject bearable the same way Kurt Vonnegut did in Slaughterhouse-Five: with grim, darkly consoling humor." - Time Magazine "Elegant, philosophical and moving...Beautiful and important." - Kirkus Reviews, Starred "An extraordinary narrative." - School Library Journal, Starred "Exquisitely written and memorably populated, Zusak's poignant tribute to words, survival, and their curiously inevitable entwinement is a tour de force to be not just read but inhabited." - The Horn Book Magazine, Starred "One of the most highly anticipated young-adult books in years." - The Wall Street Journal ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The book is in Like New condition but as you can see in the photo's, it has normal wear and tear but besides that it looks Brand New.
