A Father's Struggle, a Daughter's Quest, and the Long Shadow of the Holocaust
Description
This investigation of Karen Baum Gordon’s family history is grounded in eighty-eight letters written mostly by Julie Baum, Karen's grandmother, between 1936 and 1941. In five parts, Gordon examines pieces of these well-worn, handwritten letters and other archival documents in order to discover what her family experienced during the Nazi period.
