The Shawl

About The Shawl

From the winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award comes a story about the Holocaust that “burns itself into the reader’s imagination with almost surreal powers” (The New York Times).

“Read this great little book of Cynthia Ozick’s: It contains dazzling staggering pages filled with sadness and truth.” —Elie Wiesel, Chicago Tribune

A devastating vision of the Holocaust and the unfillable emptiness it left in the lives of those who passed through it.
