Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow
Wow! I am searching for the words to describe the phenomenal experience of reading Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow.
I am not a gamer but I have worked alongside engineers at a tech startup who are gamers and my daughter is a gamer. Reading this book was like a peek into another world. A gamer is a builder of worlds. Readers do not need to be gamers to thoroughly enjoy this literary treasure.

It does slow the pace down and my level of interest when it drags in the middle. I hope you are reading a terrific four or five star book.

her review
of
The Counterfeit Countess: The Jewish Woman Who Rescued Thousands of Poles During the Holocaust
"
The topic and content are critical. It read more like a history book than narrative nonfiction.

“Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Whenever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the centre of the universe.”
