Early book a Winner,

This review is from: The Orchids (Hardcover)
I discovered Thomas H. Cook,s writtings several years ago and agree with some that He just might be one of the best writers in America. His choice of the perfect word and turn of phrase suddenly makes you aware that you reading a book by someone with a gifted mind. I purchased this book at a book fair, not seeing this previously in his list of books he,s written.This book is about a doctor who was at the death camps in Poland and escaped to South American with an aide by means of stolan diamonds.Like a fictional Dr. Mengele we learn of an apparent kind and generous person in a new life setting, tormented by his unspeakable and horrendous past. Cook takes this macabe setting and makes us all face the evil that is possible in man. It is a very worthwhile read.

Another hit for Thomas H. Cook! I don't know how I lived this long without hearing about him sooner!
I don't write reviews because you can "Look inside" and read excerpts for yourself. But this was brilliant as usual. |
