Description
Losing the Dead by Lisa Appignanesi is a moving family memoir that explores the author's journey to uncover the truth about her family's past. As her mother's health declines, Lisa sets out to learn more about their experiences during wartime Poland.
This powerful story delves into the lives of Jews who survived outside the camps, but it is also a deeply personal account of self-discovery and growth. With courage and curiosity, Lisa Appignanesi revisits her family's history, imagining and revisiting a past she never knew.
