We Are Still Here (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789652293749)

In this intimate collection of essays, Rebecca Liebermann Nissel recounts the story of five generations. From her grandparents' lives in pre-war Europe, to her parents' Holocaust experiences, to her own childhood in Vienna, and then on to her children's and grandchildren's lives as Americans, Nissel weaves the tale of a family that refuses to be torn apart. Written as short stories, this is an eclectic narrative of her Hungarian family that is as much about history as it is about psychology and sociology. What ties these essays together is the perspective of one woman, a daughter of survivors, whose insight is as penetrating as it is interdisciplinary. Nurtured by the warmth and security of the upbringing her parents courageously managed to give her, Nissel carries a unique message of hope that touches the humanity within each of us.
