His German footsoldier's perspective makes The Forgotten Soldier a unique war memoir, the book that the Christian Science Monitor said „may well be the book about World War II which has been so long awaited.” Now it has been handsomely republished as a hardcover containing fifty rare German combat photos of life and death at the eastern front. ![]() As a member of the elite Gross Deutschland Division, he fought in all the great battles from Kursk to Kharkov.

It’s a quick and pacy read which I enjoyed immensely and from the offset, I immediately felt Deka’s overarching anxiety. ![]() Forna spares no punches in thrusting the reader straight into the gritty world of sixteen-year-old Deka.

Many scenes are described in bloody detail, and there is no shortage of scary characters, including an evil witch, the moon, and the Devil. ![]() Like the title suggests, Gidwitz’s version of Hansel and Gretel is both dark and grim. Gidwitz retells the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel, plus expertly weaves pieces of other fairy tales into Hansel’s and Gretel’s story.
