Luminous and gripping to the very last page, it is an enthralling investigation into family secrets, a poignant tale of mothers and daughters, and a vivid portrait of twentieth-century Parisian intellectual and artistic life. January, 2003. Together with the usual holiday cards, an anonymous postcard is delivered to the Berest family home. On the front, a photo of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. On the back, the names of Anne Berest's maternal great-grandparents, Ephraïm and Emma, and their children, Noémie and Jacques--all killed at Auschwitz. Fifteen years after the postcard is delivered, Anne, the heroine of this novel, is moved to discover who sent it and why. Aided by her chain-smoking mother, family members, friends, associates, a private detective, a graphologist, and many others, she embarks on a journey to discover the fate of the Rabinovitch family: their flight from Russia following the revolution, their journey to Latvia, Palestine, and Paris. What emerges is a moving saga of a family devastated by the Holocaust and partly restored through the power of storytelling that shatters long-held certainties about Anne's family, her country, and herself." --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult New Books Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked out 05/23/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult New Books Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Berest Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 3 Next
