Produktinformationen zu „The Survivors (ePub)“
The grandson of Holocaust survivors comes to terms with his family's painful past and a shocking revelation of his own origins in this moving memoir.
Adam Frankel's maternal grandparents survived the Holocaust and built new lives, with new names, in New Haven, Connecticut. Though they tried to leave the horrors of their past behind, the pain they suffered crossed generational lines-a fact most apparent in the mental health of Adam's mother.
When Adam set out to examine his family history, he learned a shocking secret that unraveled Adam's entire understanding of who he is and where he came from.
Through this journey into the past-from the horrors of Dachau to an identity crisis as a speechwriter in the Obama White House to the long road toward healing-Adam is forced to reckon with his family's psyche and secrets, the science of trauma, the cruelty of mental illness, and the ugly truth of his own origins.
Through the process, he comes to realize that while the nature of our families' traumas may vary, each of us is faced with the same choice: we can turn away from what we've inherited or we can confront it in the hopes of moving on and stopping that trauma from inflicting pain on future generations.
