See Under Love David Grossman Vintage Classics

Momik, the only child of two survivors, is brought up in Israel by a family seeking to ignore the past. No-one will explain to him what life was like \'Over There\' or what the \'Nazi Beast\' is. His 9-year-old mind imagines a Nazi Beast hiding in the cellar, waiting to feed on Jews. Momik increasingly shields himself from all feeling and attachment. But through the stories his great-uncle tells him-the same stories he told the commandant of a Nazi concentration camp-Momik, too, becomes \"infected with humanity.\" See Under: Love is a luminously imaginative and profoundly affecting work.
