Description
A fascinating story of courage, doubt and defiance across three generations. Natasha Walter's memoir is a heartfelt exploration of her family's history, from her mother's life as a young anti-nuclear activist to her grandfather's experiences in the anti-Nazi resistance during World War II. Through her research and reflection, Walter uncovers the complex legacy of her family's past, one marked by both great risks and profound loss. With honest passion and without false hope, she searches for what is valuable in this legacy, revealing a story that is both deeply personal and universally relevant. This memoir is a powerful exploration of the human spirit, one that asks us to consider the importance of standing up for what we believe, even when success is far from assured.
