Sophie's choice
4 stars
(13 reviews)
"Sophie's Choice, the story of the haunted refugee, is told through the eyes of Stingo, a struggling young writer who is as bewitched by Sophie's lovely body as he is intrigued by her elusive past. In an effort to understand her and her troubled, all-consuming relationship with her lover, Nathan, Stingo gently peels away the layers of half truths and self-deceptions with which Sophie has armored herself.
What he discovers encapsulates all the horror of the Nazi regime in one unimaginable act."--BOOK JACKET.
