Description
A deeply moving memoir of survival and loss, But You Did Not Come Back is Marceline Loridan-Ivens' poignant letter to her father, whom she never knew as an adult. In 1944, at the age of fifteen, Marceline was arrested in occupied France along with her father, and they were sent to Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland. The traumatic events that followed have continued to haunt her life. With unflinching honesty, Marceline recounts the collapse of their family, her efforts to find a place in a changing world, and the enduring impact of her father's death on her life. This is an intimate and deeply moving account of one woman's struggle to come to terms with her past and find a sense of belonging. A powerful and personal memoir that sheds light on the experiences of those who survived the Holocaust, But You Did Not Come Back is a testament to the enduring power of love and loss.
