Memory

Winner of the Prix Wizo (Jewish Interest). The book is as much about family secrets as the occupation of France during WWII (and the Holocaust). The narrator's voice is haunting.



A translation of an award-winning European best-seller follows the efforts of psychoanalyst Grimbert to uncover and understand secrets that haunted his suicide-victim parents, from a lost child and a passionate love affair to a betrayal that was overshadowed by World War II.
