Winner of: 2015 National Jewish Book Award; Biography, Autobiography, and Memoir This memoir is a fascinating portrait of mother and child who miraculously survive two concentration camps, then, after the war, battle demons of the past, societal rejection, disbelief, and invalidation as they struggle to reenter the world of the living.
