About this listen
In this special episode of the Book Fair Podcast, Anthony discusses 'The Devil's Arithmetic' by Jane Yolen, a poignant historical fiction novel that explores the Holocaust through the eyes of a young Jewish girl named Hannah. The conversation delves into the themes of memory, tradition, and the importance of remembering history to prevent its repetition. Anthony also addresses the controversy surrounding the book's banning due to its depiction of nudity and the harsh realities faced by Holocaust victims, emphasizing the need for education and remembrance in today's society.
