A good book.
 
It’s an alternate history drama in which Charles Lindbergh wins the 1940 US presidential election and starts an antisemitic campaign against the Jewish population in America, sparking a partial breakdown in society

I was (unsuccesfully) trying to be funny. What with trump blaming Europe for sending the China virus to America etc
 
I thought the first episode worked really well

Really captured that idea of no matter how much immigrants love America (or anywhere), there's always someone resentful of their presence, willing to gleefully pull the rug out from under them

Nice opening with the chalk lines and the divisions drawn between the kids
 
I thought the series was terrific.

I think the novel is great but I think with the TV series, it was excellent on how they changed it from the novel of the child's point of view to the TV as a more perspective view

I didn't mind that they want away from the novel for the last episode.
 
Got round to this and watched it the past few days, thought it was really good! Never went all out into craziness.

Haven't read the book, I will though, when I catch up with all the Philip Roth's I haven't read.
