How to Find Your Way in the Dark - Derek B. Miller

 How to Find Your Way in the Dark -Derek B. Miller

He and she read

I did not read Norwegian by Night, for which this novel is a prequel.  


A tender historical fiction, coming of age novel, this is well written, character driven, and introspective.  There are a few different story lines, but they are woven together well.  I was a bit surprised by the emphasis on the gangster side of life and felt in a way it took something from what was the more important aspect of the story…the world wide anti Semitism and horror it brought prior to and during World War II.  


There were a few misses in this novel but, overall, a recommended read.

BTW - he really liked it.
