This is a compelling account of pain and hardship linked to one of history's great tragedies." "[T]he circumstances, setting and generous sensibility of [Diamant's] book [are] compel[ling]....One senses...[her] expertise on Jewish tradition...and her familiarity with both Holocaust experiences and the psychology of Holocaust survivors. Indeed, the factual details of the novel are so persuasive and interesting (if troubling) they make one long for the nonfiction book Diamant might also have written....It is clear that much of what Diamant presents is informed by her thorough knowledge of Atlit itself." "Anita Diamant's...novel offers all the satisfactions found in her previous works...: rich portraits of female friendship, unflinching acknowledgment of life's cruelty and resolute assertion of hope, enfolded in a strong story line developed in lucid prose....DAY AFTER NIGHT demonstrates the power of fiction to illuminate the souls of people battered by the forces of history." "[E]xtraordinary...Diamant once again gives us strong women, wonderful women, inspirational women, who overcome unimaginable obstacles. Thanks to Diamant, we can believe that anyone can start anew." "Diamant opens a window into a time of sadness, confusion and optimism that has resonance for so much that's both triumphant and troubling in modern Jewish history."
