This is a very good read if you have never read or heard anything about Jewish life in Europe, pre WWII. The characters are well drawn and not stereotypical, and you can just put yourself into the village in a moment. I found the first part of the story the most attractive, as it was about village life. The second part is more of rebellion, resistance to the military and assumes the reader knows about ghetto life. Also, it does portray life in the Warsaw ghetto, but not in very great detail.
