Do Not Disclose
Book Feature - Do Not Disclose by Leora Krygier
HBL Note: I’ve read my fair share of WWII books. I am often looking for a new take, something that doesn’t recount the same story we’ve read a thousand times. A memoir about a second-generation holocaust survivor? That’s not something I’ve read before. A memoir about learning you’re a second-generation holocaust survivor after stumbling upon a file full of handwritten notes? Fascinating. Scroll down to learn more about how this file full of notes and a postcard found in a thrift store revealed some closely held family secrets in DO NOT DISCLOSE by Leora Krygier.

From the publisher:
Leora, a juvenile court judge, wife, mother, and daughter, is caught in the routine of work, taking care of her family and aging parents. But she’s also a second-generation Holocaust survivor. It’s an identity she didn’t understand was hers until she accidentally discovered a secret file of handwritten notes addressed to her father. A further discovery of a seemingly random WWII postcard in a thrift store sets her on a collision course with the past in this lyrical memoir about secrets hidden within secrets, both present-day and buried deep within wartime Europe.
