About the book

A harrowing story that follows the wanderings of a boy abandoned by his parents during World War II, The Painted Bird is a dark novel that examines the proximity of terror and savagery to innocence and love.

...strongest, most harrowing novel... It's an incredibly difficult and important book, and the fact the controversy surrounding it and the author only heightens its effect.
