## Description

PENGUIN The Silence of the Girls: From the Booker prize-winning author of Regeneration : Barker, Pat: desertcart.ae: Books

Review: A different view point on history. - Such a startling wonderful read.
Review: Eine Geschichte über einen Krieg kann wohl nur grausam sein. Insoweit hätte mein Geschichtslehrer gesagt: "Nur für starke Nerven!" Lesenswert ist, wie die Autorin herausarbeitet, welche eigentlich sehr lächerlichen Gründe hinter dem ganzen Gemetzel stehen: Kindsköpfe, die wie kleine Jungs handeln, die sich im Sandkasten das Spielzeug wegnehmen wollen. Gerade heute ein sehr wichtiges Buch. Beim aktuellen Krieg in Europa dürfte es im Grunde kaum anders sein.
