"The book was first released in the United States in 2006, where it was greeted with warm reviews. In Poland, however, the book has been sharply criticized in newspaper editorials and reviews and by historians accusing Gross of using inflammatory language and unfairly labeling all of postwar Polish society as anti-Semitic."
"As a reader points out in the letters section. what the book fails to mention is that the Polish Jews, having previously emigrated from Russia, were sympathetic to the communists, had formed a Polish communist party before the war, and collaborated with the Soviets when they invaded Poland in 1939 in partnership with the Nazis. After Poland regained its independence, Nazi/Soviet collaborators of ALL ethnic persuasions were dealt with harshly, as was done in virtually every other country that had been under Nazi occupation. Like the German slave-labor camps, the history of the Polish liberation has been re-worked into a story of primarily Jewish victimhood." -- Mike Rivero of What Really Happened
