If not Now, when? (Abacus Books) - Tapa blanda

This book achieves many things - too many, really, to itemise ... yet one is left with an enormous sense of optimism and gratitude to the author (LISTENER)

Levi is a master whose hand never slips... I was convinced by every detail, and absurdly shaken to realise at the end that it was indeed fiction, however well grounded in fact. I knew these people, and I wanted to know more (THE TIMES)

Levi writes of unimaginable hardships ... and of exhilaration... (FINANCIAL TIMES)

A novel full of horrors, but wonderfully uplifting and optimistic in its tribute to the human spirit. (SUNDAY TIMES)

If I'm not for myself, who will be for me? If not this way, how? If not now, when?' So runs the Song of the Partisan. This enthralling novel pays tribute to the Jews who fought back during the holocaust. Based on a true story, it chronicles the adventures, crises and moral struggles of a group of Russian and Polish refugees as, stranded in occupied territory, they offer what resistance they can to the German army.
