Review: Day After Night

Day After Night by Anita Diamant
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

My third book by Anita Diamant was not disappointing. In this historical fiction story she refers to something that truly happened in 1945. I found it amazing as I had never heard about how Great Britain treated undocumented immigrants after WWII. I do plan to research more about "Atlit" a holding camp for "illegal" immigrants in Israel in 1945.
