Looking at the Holocaust through the eyes of a complicit individual, the narrative follows a good-natured carpenter living in a Slovak town in 1942 who unwittingly becomes a participant in a moral crisis involving the abuse and persecution of Jews. Describing the film adaptation of Ladislav Grosman’s novel, the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003edeclared that it is a “human drama that is a moving manifest of the dark dilemma that confronted all people who were caught as witnesses to Hitler's terrible crime.” The review continues: “‘Is one his brother's keeper?’ is the thundering question the situation asks, and then, ‘Are not all men brothers?’ The answer given is a grim acknowledgement. But the unfolding of the drama is simple, done in casual, homely, humorous terms—until the terrible, heartbreaking resolution of the issue at the end.”","brand":"Iris Urwin Lewitova","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42848885243965,"sku":"9788024640228","price":17.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9788024640228_1ec8046d-fad7-452e-ba35-a32c93256b11.jpg?v=1766990033","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/the-shop-on-main-street","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
