5.0 out of 5 stars
Brilliant collection of stories, January 3, 2007
This review is from: The Bride from Odessa: Stories (Hardcover)
This collection of stories is excellently written, addicting to read, and takes you on a ride across several continents in its exploration of Jewish migration during and following World War 2. Its range of subject matter is impressive -- the book has stories set in different time periods & places, each with different and unique goals. Cozarinsky's style is metropolitan and compelling and the use of style to convey points is well done -- for example he uses excerpts of letters and other historical documents to call into question the truthfulness of memory. The stories are a quick read but made me want to read more, and I am eager to return to the book to catch all the details I missed the first time through. I highly recommend this book.
