Selected as a “Summer Read”

We were excited to see our book highlighted (pp. 46-47) in the University of Michigan Alum Summer 2023 Magazine, and recommended as a "Summer Read". In her review of our book, Katherine Fiorillo writes, "'The Ones Who Remember' is a stark reminder that these atrocities aren’t so distant and tragedy doesn’t stop radiating just because the violent acts have physically ceased.....This legacy is one that is sometimes joyful, as families celebrate the ways their Jewish culture has survived, but one often marred by inherited grief that creeps into daily life. One of the most recurring examples is self-gaslighting as the second generation perpetually belittles some of their most challenging personal experiences by comparing them to the Holocaust. Even in its brightest, most hopeful moments,
'The Ones Who Remember' is not a light read. But it’s one that helps us better understand intergenerational trauma, the power of storytelling, the true meaning of resilience, and how to be a better ally, friend, and community member to those who carry a nearly unbearable weight."
