"'Nothing could be worse than Stalin," said one of the men at the dining room table. 'He is the epitome of evil.'
'There is no better or worse,' said Papa, his voice low. I leaned farther around the corner to listen.
'But Hitler won't uproot us,' said the man....
'My point is that we're dealing with two devils who both want to rule hell'" p168.

Can't wait to dive into this one.
I absolutely loved this book. Elements of mental illness born of a disturbing past give this story teeth and it has a very tender love story as well. One of my very favorites I have read.
It's been a long time since a book has touched me as much as this one has. I stayed up late to finish it and even though I was so tired I could not fall asleep for awhile because I could not stop thinking about the story. The story was haunting and heartbreaking.
