Reviews
“Potok is blind but he makes us see not only the pre-World War Two landscape from which he and his family fled, but also how and why and at what price.” —Jay Neugeboren, author of “Max Baer and the Star of David” and “Imagining Robert”
“Potok explores the long reach of both his family’s 1939 escape from Poland and his own blindness in this thoughtful and elegant memoir.” —Elinor Langer, author of “Josephine Herbst” and “A Hundred Little Hitlers.”
