- Summary:
- "Alison Leslie Gold, known best for her work on Anne Frank and the Holocaust, here for the first time relates a personal memoir, centred on recent losses of loved ones and on various findings that to some extent offset the losses. Starting with her childhood experience of running her school 'lost and found' depot, she develops, through a series of letters, a meditation on ageing, friendship, and the sort of 'translation' required when writing to the dead. Her text is accompanied by 13 paintings from Charlotte Salomon's timeless masterpiece Leben? oder Teater?" http://www.sylpheditions.com/alison.html.
