Book: Finding Ida by Marya Burgess
Reviewed by Anonymous
Rating: 5/5
Finding Ida is a beautifully written and poignant story of life in Poland before and during WWII. The Jews and the Gentiles, all Poles, all treated the same before Hitler’s ideology spread but treated so differently after. When Ida and her young child go missing, choices that have dire consequences were made in order to get them back. Every time I read about the atrocities committed by Hitler and his people, the hate spread, all the people lost due to his rhetoric, it breaks my heart all over again.
Marya Burgess crafted a story based on her own mother’s experience that was captivating and moving. If you like to read fictionalized stories based on true ones, this is a great one! 5 out of 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
