An outrageous injustice, but this hauntingly intense novel will surely right this wrong. I urge you to read the story of this Jewish Gypsy, if only to deepen your awareness of your own'.' The Eighth Sin' is a searing, unforgettable first person novel about a Gypsy survivor of the Nazi death camps, brought to New York City by Jews who try to understand and repair the damage done to his soul. Stefan Kanfer is of Romanian descent and lives in New York. He has written extensively on the Holocaust. Quite a scarce book. Seller Inventory # 006496
