The Narrow Road to the Deep North - Richard Flanagan - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of The Narrow Road to the Deep North:

Living through the creation of the Thai-Burma Death Railway.

My favorite Richard Flanagan quote from the book:

"The path to survival was to never give up on the small things."

Questions I pondered while reading the book:

What happened to humanity during WWII?

Can we find peace after such a war?

My review of The Narrow Road to the Deep North:

WWII was a truly dark time.

Why is it so easy to be abusive?

This story will stick with me forever.
