David Leavitt recommends
Blooms of Darkness (2010)
Aharon Appelfeld
"Like Anne Frank’s diary - a work to which it will draw justified comparison - Blooms of Darkness records a brutal process of education [through which] Appelfeld reveals his compassion, his wisdom, and his restraint . . . Majestic and humane."
