Free Download Rita Goldberg, "Motherland: Growing Up With the Holocaust"
English | ISBN: 1620970732 | 2015 | 352 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
A groundbreaking second-generation memoir of the Holocaust and its legacy by Otto Frank's goddaughter―"The extraordinary tale is heroic" (The New York Times).
Rita Goldberg recounts the extraordinary story of her mother, Hilde Jacobsthal, a close friend of Anne Frank's family who was fifteen when the Nazis invaded Holland. After the arrest of her parents in 1943, Hilde fled to Belgium, living out the war years in an extraordinary set of circumstances―first among the Resistance, and then at Bergen-Belsen after its liberation. In the words of The Guardian, the story is "worthy of a film script."
As astonishing as Hilde's story is, Rita herself emerges as the central character in this utterly unique memoir. Proud of her mother and yet struggling to forge an identity in the shadow of such heroic accomplishments―not to mention her family's close relationship to the iconic Frank family―Goldberg offers an unflinching look at the struggles faced by children and grandchildren whose own lives are haunted by historic tragedy.
