—Sacramento Bee
A powerful novel…Tatiana de Rosnay has captured the insane world of the Holocaust and the efforts of the few good people who stood up against it in this work of fiction more effectively than has been done in many scholarly studies. It is a book that makes us sensitive to how much evil occurred and also to how much willingness to do good also existed in that world.
—Rabbi Jack Riemer, South Florida Jewish Journal
This is the shocking, profoundly moving and morally challenging story... It will haunt you, it will help to complete you…nothing short of miraculous.
—Augusten Burroughs
Just when you thought you might have read about every horror of the Holocaust, a book will come along and shine a fierce light upon yet another haunting wrong. SARAH'S KEY is such a novel. In remarkably unsparing, unsentimental prose...through a lens so personal and intimate, it will make you cry --- and remember.
—Jenna Blum, author of THOSE WHO SAVE US
A wonderful book.
