But you did not come back by Marceline Loridan-Ivens
A non-fiction book that reads like fiction but unfortunately isn’t.
It’s not a memoir where a life is laid out slowly and diligently in front of your eyes, it’s more like a set of passionate snapshots and reflections by someone who has been to a concentration camp and lost her father there. The book is addressed to the father — as in, it has sentences like

…which makes it sound intimate.
A hundred pages showing real impact on one real family.
★★★☆☆
