Ultimately, all attempts are a description of the horrors be doomed to failure. The tragedy behind it is not with the authors, but in the imperfection of human language. There are no words for what happened. The author tells the story of Auschwitz, in the eyes of a child. The innocent look opens up a perspective, that force the reader to worry in a way that he means to have to break it.
Boyne in this work is not only a great fortune, but also an extremely sensitive plea.
