Reader reviews for The Devil's Arithmetic

From the publisher

This critically acclaimed novel by award-winning author Jane Yolen is now available in a beautifully designed new edition. Hannah dreads going to her family's Passover Seder -- she's tired of hearing her relatives talk about the past. But when she opens the front door to symbolically welcome the prophet Elijah, she's transported to a Polish village in the year 1942, where she becomes caught up in the tragedy of the time.

First line

"I'M TIRED OF REMEMBERING," HANNAH SAID TO HER MOTHER as she climbed into the car.
