Publisher's summary
La lucha por la supervivencia de un niño judío en la Francia ocupada por los nazis.
El peluquero Joffo, un honrado judío establecido en el París ocupado por los nazis, decide dispersar a su familia para evitar el cruel y posible destino que les espera. Sus hijos, Joseph (el autor de esta obra) y Maurice tienen, a sus diez y doce años, que sobrevivir solos en un universo desquiciado, en el que la barbarie, la amistad, la picaresca y, sobre todo, el miedo, imponen una sola ley: la supervivencia.

Como miembro de los satmar, una comunidad de judíos ultraortodoxos de Williamsburg (Brooklyn, Nueva York), Deborah Feldman crece bajo un estricto código de normas que rige desde su idioma -el yiddish- o su indumentaria hasta sus lecturas y las personas con las que se le permite relacionarse. Siendo adolescente, intuye que puede existir una forma de vida alternativa entre los rascacielos de Manhattan, y se debate entre la responsabilidad de ser una buena judía jasídica y sus anhelos de independencia.

Pero quizá Will Robie acaba de cometer el primer—y último—error de su carrera.

Story
Eger tenía dieciséis años cuando los nazis invadieron su pueblo de Hungría y se la llevaron con el resto de su familia a Auschwitz. Al pisar el campo, sus padres fueron enviados a la cámara de gas y ella permaneció junto a su hermana, pendiente de una muerte segura. Pero bailar El Danubio azul para Mengele salvó su vida, y a partir de entonces empezó una nueva lucha por la supervivencia. Primero en los campos de exterminio, luego en la Checoslovaquia tomada por los comunistas y, finalmente, en Estados Unidos, donde acabaría convirtiéndose en discípula de Viktor Frankl.

Todos los días friego la preciosa casa de los Winchester de arriba abajo. Recojo a su hija del colegio y preparo deliciosas comidas para toda la familia antes de subir a cenar sola en mi minúscula habitación del piso superior. Intento no prestar atención a Nina cuando lo ensucia todo simplemente para ver cómo lo limpio. A las extrañas mentiras que cuenta sobre su propia hija. A su marido, que cada día parece más abatido. Pero cuando miro a Andrew a los ojos, castaños, encantadores y llenos de dolor, no me resulta difícil imaginar cómo sería vivir en la piel de Nina.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

On September 26, 2020, Michael was in a great mood. He’d recently returned home to Oklahoma after years in the military. He’d bought a house and had a job teaching and coaching basketball at the local high school. But that night, Michael’s life would turn upside down. Around two o’clock in the morning, he heard people banging on the doors and windows of his home. He called 911 for help. This is the story of what happened next, and why. To understand it, we have to go back to the Trail of Tears that the Five Tribes were forced to walk.
