The right of passage : one Jewish family's struggle to escape the Holocaust
Beecroft, Julian2025
Books
How much could the victims of the Holocaust have known of what awaited them? How much should they have known? 'The Right of Passage' reveals how different members of a single German-Jewish family tried to flee the Nazi regime. The discovery of a cache of photographs leads the authors to hundreds of letters, on which the book is based. Newly translated from German, these exchanges among leading thinkers of the period vividly record an intellectual culture in flight, though none could grasp the nature of the evil that was coming.
