About this product
Product Information
This poignant memoir by Noah Lederman, the grandson of Holocaust survivors, transports readers from his grandparents kitchen table in Brooklyn to World War II Poland. In the 1950s, Noah s grandparents raised their children on Holocaust stories. But because tales of rebellion and death camps gave his father and aunt constant nightmares, in Noah s adolescence Grandma would only recount the PG version. Noah, however, craved the uncensored truth and always felt one right question away from their pasts. But when Poppy died at the end of the millennium, it seemed the Holocaust stories died with him. In the years that followed, without the love of her life by her side, Grandma could do little more than mourn. After college, Noah, a travel writer, roamed the world for fifteen months with just one rule: avoid Poland. A few missteps in Europe, however, landed him in his grandparents country. When he returned home, he cautiously told Grandma about his time in Warsaw, fearing that the past would bring up memories too painful for her to relive. But, instead, remembering the Holocaust unexpectedly rejuvenated her, ending five years of mourning her husband. Together, they explored the memories of Auschwitz and a half-dozen other camps, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and the displaced persons camps that his grandmother had buried for decades. And the woman he had playfully mocked as a child became his hero. I was left with the stories the ones that had been hidden, the ones that offered catharsis, the ones that gave me a second hero, the ones that resurrected a family, the ones that survived even death. Their shared journey profoundly illuminates the transformative power of never forgetting."

Reviews
Lederman's dogged persistence in getting his grandparents to recount their memories of the Holocaust pays off brilliantly. In A World Erased, he rescues their stories--and the stories of so many who survived, and so many who didn't--and turns their experiences during the Holocaust into an enduring monument for his own generation and those to follow.
