Markus Zusak The Book Thief


    I was recently looking back at some of the books that I’ve read this past year for titles that I’d either recommend or have recommended. Topping the list was “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak. Zusak was a very young author when he began receiving awards and recognition for his first several YA novels. “The Book Thief” is a story of a young girl living in Germany in the 1940s. The plot involves life, death and the main character’s discovery of the power and meaning of literary works. This was actually recommended to me and after reading it I passed it on to someone else. I would definitely place this on a must read list of modern literature.
