milkegg's review against another edition
3.5
Stone does a great job of centering Holocaust victims' voices across all chapters and highlights the truly mind-boggling humanitarian crisis facing the Allied powers post-war. However, I wished there was more concrete explanation of the differences between the Jewish aid agencies and how they worked with/in Allied/UN organizing bodies. There was a notable lack of explanation in earlier chapters to understand how these DPs were constructed/utilized for Cold War aims; this was only really made explicit in Chapter 5. It really would have created a better overall structure if Stone had included this narrative in Chapters 1-3.
