Losing the dead

Trama

Lisa Appignanesi was born Elsbieta Borenztejn in Poland. Unlike other Holocaust survival memoirs, hers is the story of how the nucleus of the family survived outside the camps, beyond the ghetto and eventually made it to the new world - but still faced anti-semitism in post-war Catholic Quebec.
