Summary

It was a time of crisis, a time of tragedy - and a time of transcendent courage and determination. Leon Uris’s blazing novel is set in the midst of the ghetto uprising that defied Nazi tyranny, as the Jews of Warsaw boldly met Wehrmacht tanks with homemade weapons and bare fists. Here, painted on a canvas as broad as its subject matter, is the compelling story of one of the most heroic struggles of modern times.

magnificent

I have read this book while growing up but the desire to have it read to me was very real. I found the narration and cadence perfect. my heart broke all over again and I loved every minute of it.

Powerful and moving

This work of fiction tells the extraordinary story of the Warsaw ghetto. It is a difficult and tragic history but very powerfully written and performed well. I first read this book in the early 80’s and always wanted to reread it, such was its effect. I returned to it this year to find the print so small as to be impossible to read comfortably. I was delighted to find it available on Audible and to find it had lost none of its original impact.

Powerful and Moving

This book is a thought provoking powerful tale of bravery and honour in the face of severe unwavering persecution of a People, it is a book I read many many years ago many times and I never fail to be moved by the story and characters within. This audio version is paced beautifully and acted well. It is well worth your time and trouble to read or listen to.

Revisited and worth it.

A little dated for a reader in 2022. But a superb storyteller. Terribly sad story but also uplifting.

Good historical accuracy

I found the early part of the story less interesting than the drama of the experience of the ghetto struggle against the Germans. Still worth listening to.

Great story, poor reader

I love the detail woven into Leon Uris' stories, but why chose someone who knows the words but cannot read. Ruined a great book.
