| Summary |
This moving memoir by the grandson of Holocaust survivors transports readers from Noah's grandmother's home in Brooklyn to World War II Poland. Together, they explore the memories-of Auschwitz, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and the displaced persons camps-that his family had long buried. Their shared journey illuminates the power of never forgetting. |
|
The author describes the plight of his grandparents and other members of his family in the Holocaust, including life in the ghettos, deportation to concentrations camps, the Warshaw Ghetto Uprising, and life in displaced persons camps after the war. |
