What Papa Told Me por Felice Cohen
I just saw a video of Felice Cohen, in a series about people who live in very small spaces. I was so intrigued by her, living in a teeny tiny apartment in Manhattan, where her bed is just 23 inches from the ceiling, and sky high shelves are full of all her belongings.. and to think she wrote this book from this tiny home.... I'm curious to find out about her grandfather.
Not to make light of the torturous hardships Murray Schwartzbaum lived through, but this man has 9 lives! EIGHT concentration camps, a family suicide, the deaths of too many relatives and a move to America. .... the man has compassion and empathy running thru his veins.
A short book for sure, written by his grand-daughter by way of discussions and questions ...it is NOT meant to be an in-depth holocaust story. Instead it is meant to be a memoir, shared precious moments with a man who kept more inside than most share in a lifetime of talking.
One word? I'd have to say PRECIOUS.
Wish i could personally give Murray a hug...… (más)

What an important document this is, and what a great job by the writer/editor in capturing the voice of the storyteller and the urgency of the importance of the storytelling. I love it when books inspire me. This one did so in multiple ways. First, it inspired the necessity of voice-capture in a book I'm working on that captures dozens of distinct voices, and second, it inspired me to pursue the publishing of my grandfather's memoirs. Everything's been recorded, I just need to begin the work...
