FSG/Macmillan
In this time of rising anti-semitism, this book reminds us of the horror it can come to and all that is lost in such hatred.
This is a family story of art, commerce and movement, over hundreds of years. With wonderfully drawn characters who come alive in all their foibles, romances and fears.
You want the illustrated edition as the photos are great additions to the story.
If you would like to know more about, or own this book, please check with your local independent bookstore or this great place bookshop.org
