This poignant memoir by the grandson of Holocaust survivors transports readers from Noah Lederman's grandparents' kitchen table in Brooklyn to World War II Poland. In the 1950s, Noah's grandparents raised their children on Holocaust stories. Because tales of rebellion and death camps gave his father and aunt constant nightmares, in Noah's adolescence, Grandma would only recount the PG-version. Noah, however, craved the uncensored truth, and always felt one right question away from their pasts.…
This poignant memoir by the grandson of Holocaust survivors transports readers from Noah Lederman's grandparents' kitchen table in Brooklyn to World War II Poland. In the 1950s, Noah's grandparents raised their children on Holocaust stories. Because tales of rebellion and death camps gave his father and aunt constant nightmares, in Noah's adolescence, Grandma would only recount the PG-version. Noah, however, craved the uncensored truth, and always felt one right question away from their pasts. But when Poppy died at the end of the millennium, it seemed the Holocaust stories died with him. Without the love of her life by her side, Grandma could do little more than mourn in the years that followed. After college, Noah, a travel writer, roamed the world for fifteen months, inadvertently landing in Poland. When he returned home, he cautiously told Grandma about his time in Warsaw, fearing that the past would bring up memories too painful for her to relive. But instead, remembering the Holocaust unexpectedly rejuvenated her, ending five years of mourning her husband. Together, they explored the memories--of Auschwitz and a half dozen other camps, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and the displaced persons camps--that his grandmother had buried for decades. And the woman he had playfully mocked as a child became his hero. Their shared journey profoundly illuminates the transformative power of never forgetting.
