Franz Werfel
Praise for The Forty Days of Musa Dagh
Forty Days will invade your senses and keep the blood pounding. Once read, it will never be forgotten
The New York Times
In every sense a true and thrilling novel... It tells a story which it is almost one's duty as an intelligent human being to read. And one's duty here becomes one's pleasure also
New York Times Book Review
Werfel's book ... did more than the efforts of any diplomat, journalist, or historian to encourage speech about the unspeakable. It arrives today as a timely reminder that savagery thrives in silence
