Story4.5 out of 5 stars 124
Adam Frankel’s maternal grandparents survived the Holocaust and built new lives, with new names, in 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 sat down with her to examine their family history in detail, he learned another shocking secret, this time one that unraveled Adam’s entire understanding of who he is.

Soulful Healing Trough Self Discovery
Reviewed: 09-12-24
Deep and moving story of self discovery intertwined in a complex broad historical context. The depth of family pain and resilience contrasts with the depth of unconditional love. This daring powerful reflection is thought provoking and will linger a long while.
