Showing And Darkness Was Under His Feet: Stories of a Family by Annie Dawid

"Annie Dawid's stories chronicle a Jewish family's life across generations, countries, continents. This generous book doesn't seek to serve the writer's self, but by focusing on a particular family's experiences, traces our communal story from the false security of the early 20th century, through Holocaust and Communism, up to the beginnings of our own day. " Lore Segal
