Summary:

Amazon Significant Seven, September 2007: On the heels of Alan Weisman's The World Without Us I picked up Diane Ackerman's The Zookeeper’s Wife. Both books take you to Poland's forest primeval, the Bialowieza, and paint a richly textured portrait of a natural world that few of us would recognize. The similarities end there, however, as Ackerman explores how that sense of natural order imploded under the Nazi occupation of Poland. Jan and Antonina Zabiniski--keepers of the Warsaw Zoo who sheltered Jews from the Warsaw ghetto--serve as Ackerman's lens to this moment in time, and she weaves their experiences and reflections so seamlessly into the story that it would be easy to read the book as Antonina's own miraculous memoir. Jan and Antonina's passion for life in all its diversity illustrates ever more powerfully just how narrow the Nazi worldview was, and what tragedy it wreaked. The Zookeeper’s Wife is a powerful testament to their courage and--like Irene Nemirovsky's Suite Francaise--brings this period of European history into intimate view. --Anne Bartholomew

One of the most poorly written books I've ever read. I'm surprised it got such good review. I couldn't follow most of it (too boring), and wanted to skim a lot. My book club all gave it very poor review.

could have been much better
Customer Rating:  Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2

I had a hard time reading this book it was very monotonous, a constant flow of uninteresting charters and events.That may seem strange to some because in real life those were dangerous and life threatening times.The author failed to capture the real drama that occurred during this historical time

Impactfull and compelling
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

I just listened to the audio version of this book and enjoyed it immensely. The narrator was excellent, falling easily into and out of the characters and story. The observations, that were Antonina's herself, regarding animals made me pause for thought and reflection, even replay, several times. Additionally, I gained much knowledge from The Zookeeper's Wife, which is the bonus! Thank you Ms. Ackerman, well done.

A real 'page turner' for readers who like true stories, are interested in animals,
humans, psychology and the 2. world war. Very well written - compassionate and
with a good sense of humor. My favorite!

Too slow and dry.
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3

This felt slow and dry to me. One little story after another.... I would have rather her write a historical fiction based on the story so it would flow more. The author also made it seem like all Poles were helpful to Jews. If that were the case, this story wouldn't be so special!
