"Elegant yet shattering... Rendered in plainspoken yet devastating prose, Masson's historical narrative is intercut with startling present-day moments... This is haunting." -- Publishers Weekly

This short, beautifully-written memoir is a rare first-hand account of a child's life in the Warsaw Ghetto during World War II. The author weaves together memories from her wartime childhood, reflections on the burdens and damages she carried into her adult life, and accounts of her travel to contemporary Warsaw seeking to find traces of the past. Written vividly and honestly, this unique tapestry of time and perspective not only stands out in the vast literature that discusses the Holocaust, but also appeals to anyone interested in the lasting impact of childhood trauma, as well as the human potential for resiliency.
