Book ID/图书代码： 08090013B65015
English Summary/英文概要： Traumatised by the loss of half her family in Auschwitz, a Hungarian returns to Budapest to retrace her roots. She discovers a dramatic personal history that enables her eventually to shed the burden of her past and move forward to a new life.
This is a true story of human beings caught up in the maelstrom of 20th century history – the Nazis, genocide, Cold War, dictatorship, and the struggle to make new lives after the fall of Communism.
Told with great sympathy and warmth, this well researched book brings history to life by recounting the experiences of ordinary men and women confronted with daunting challenges.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在纳粹集中营奥斯维辛丧失了几乎一半的亲人后，一名饱受精神创伤折磨的匈牙利女性回到了布达佩斯，来追溯其家族之源头。在这场探寻之旅中，她发现了一段极富戏剧性的个人历史，正是这段历史使得她最终得以摆脱过去的桎梏，转而重新向全新的生活迈进。
本书讲述了一个真实的故事，有关于人类是怎样深陷20世纪的历史洪流之中无法自拔---纳粹、种族灭绝、冷战以及独裁政权，以及共产主义失败后的人们又是如何努力地为了新生活而奋斗。全书娓娓道来，饱含悲悯之情与暖人心扉的话语，书中史料均经过仔细考究，通过对平凡的男男女女勇敢面对挑战经历的刻画与描述，本书可谓真实而生动地还原了历史。（DC）
Awards/获奖情况：有关于第二次世界大战，我已经阅读了无数相关文学作品。然而本书所跨越的历史时期和史实却只是一名女性在探寻自我身份过程中精彩的背景，甚至在某些特定时候，这些历史的存在是犹豫不决的。我们通过许多人的眼睛去观察一段时期，一个时代，从而赋予过去一种仿若当下的真实感。而作者本人则在这一探寻之旅中占据着一个微小却特别的席位。I’ve read many book that rehash WWII. Although this book covers historical events, they are the backdrop for a fascinating quest by a woman who is searching for her identity, sometime reluctantly. We see a time through many people’s eyes, giving the past a current reality. The author plays a subtle part in the quest.
