The City of Thieves by David Benioff




This is a very passionate book about a young Jewish man who is living in Russia during the war who are caught stealing from a dead german. He is arrested and given a chance to save himself. He is in the company of Kolya, a young scholar. They are given the task of finding a dozen eggs for te General's daughter's wedding. This is an impossible task because they are rationing all  the food.
This book is a very intense book which I greatly enjoyed reading. It was very gripping, I could hardly put it down.
