4.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent book in the tradition of Gunter Grass,
By Matt Valentine (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Who Was David Weiser? (Hardcover)
This is a special book, a nostalgic look backward on a postwar Poland and the mysteries encountered there by schoolboys. Huelle writes brilliantly--his subtle observations on Polish culture are tenderly conveyed through the naive explorations of children. These boys, while coming to an awareness of themselves sexually and intellectually, develop as well a sense of their community, of its religion, politics, and its tragic wartime history. Huelle's style borrows heaviliy from Gunter Grass; he deftly employs magical ambiguities which create a tone of supernatural intrigue.

Who Was David Weiser?,
This review is from: Who Was David Weiser? (Paperback)
I read the book for my East European literature class. It is very interesting, written in a simple language. David is indeed a cool dude. And his girlfriend too.

Just started readin the book today and it's quite intriguing, I must say. I spent 2 hours looking for a good book to pick out at the library, and I have a feeling this is one. David Weiser is one cool dude!
