Review of The Book Thief (2013) by Mel G — 02 Oct 2015
From 12/29/2013. "The Book Thief" (Thu 11/28/2013): I highly recommend both reading the book and seeing this film. Markus Zusak published the book in 2005. The novel is written like poetry and is already put in the same class as "The Diary of Anne Frank" (1947).
The 2013 film version is very faithful to the book, although a bit tidied up, particularly the dead after the Himmel (Heaven) Street bombing, and even fleshes out what happens to Liesel Meminger and Max Vanderburg after World War II.
