Publisher's Synopsis
Six million Jews were murdered in the Holocaust, but Michelle Weinfeld's grandfather survived.
In this intergenerational memoir, the author weaves her story with that of her grandfather, Poppy. Poppy's account of loss and rebuilding, layered with Weinfeld's journey to self-acceptance in the face of antisemitism, shows readers that trauma does not affect only the individual, but can transcend generations. From Generation to Generation explores the intersection of values, history, and identity. It answers questions such as:- How are we influenced by the generations that came before us?
- How do we embrace religion and culture in a secular society?
- What is necessary for self-acceptance?
