Description

Louise Kehoe's memoir is a remarkable story of identity and heritage. In 1939, her father Berthold Lubetkin left his thriving career in London to start a new life with his wife in rural Gloucestershire. The family's isolated existence was marked by an atmosphere of oppression, as Louise and her siblings suffered at the hands of their tyrannical father. Despite the secrecy surrounding his past, Louise became determined to uncover the truth about her father's identity and the tragic events that shaped their lives. This memoir is a testament to her perseverance and creativity, piecing together clues after her father's death to reveal a complex and often disturbing story. Written with extraordinary style and imagination, In This Dark House offers a unique glimpse into a family's history and the lasting impact of trauma on those who survive it.
