Paperback. Very Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: the rear endpaper is creased at the upper corner tip; aside from the remainder marks, refered to below,is book is flawless. Binding square and secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. REMAINDER, showing small marks at both the top and bottom edges. NOT a Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 192pp. First Edition Thus; First Printing, so stated. First published in a hardcover edition by Knopf in 1980. Trade Paperback. I read this book when it first came out, and have since read it several times. It is an extraordinarily moving story about modern English children who, because of an act of political terrorism by which they are directly affected, are brought to confront the meaning of the Holocaust from the standpoint of children. The novel is written with a somber simplicity and elegance, yet it succeeds in evoking not just the events themselves, but the whole cultural context of modern European history. It contains, for instance, one of the most frightening versions of the Hansel and Gretel story that you are ever likely to read. This book is definitely not recommended for children, but it would be hard to imagine any adult not finding it a deeply moving experience. First Edition; First Printing, so stated.
