Then continues the story of 10 year old Felix begun in Once. When Once ended, Felix and Zelda had just jumped from the cattle car heading to a concentration camp. O segundo volume da história do judeu Félix é mais emocionante do que o primeiro. Neste as lágrimas quase vieram-me aos olhos ao saber do destino de Zelda.

Everyone keeps saying how gripping this book is, how disturbing, how powerful but I don't quite feel this the same way. It's not so gripping that I can't put it down but it IS fascinating. It's not so disturbing that I feel upset by it - for apocalypses it's good but also a bit tame; they're cold but not freezing, they're hungry but not driven to cannibalism, their world is falling apart yet there is a lot less chaos and brutality than I would expect. Pardon the pun but for an apocalypse it's a bit cold and distracted.

I also learnt about world war to from a Jews perspective Discovered that his wife was having an affair with an officer under his command, then sent the man on a mission to almost certain death The character I found most interesting was Felix.

All thr things he had to go through in here, his worries and concerns, his unselfish love for Zelda and the woman who takes him and Zelda, Genia; his loyalty and basically just everything about him is something special.

I'm going to say little else about the actual story here, other than the fact that I am in AWE of the bravery of this author to have written this story. To have explored this scenario as she did. Sadly, I was away holidaying with other people when I read this - and this is a novel where the horror of what's coming creeps up behind you, slowly, like a murderous lover. You know it's coming, but you just can't turn around and make it stop. The sort of book that really, really needs to be read where you know you will not be interrupted.

Desyat' Negrityat (1987, Десять негритят, Eng: "Ten Little Negroes") a Russian adaptation produced/directed by Stanislav Govorukhin, notable for being the first cinema adaptation to keep the novel's original plot and grim ending. I was helped by Felix and Zelda’s armour-plated capacity for love, and by Felix’s creative optimism. And the structure of the story.
