Mendelsohn, Daniel. The Lost: A Search for Six of Six Million (P.S.), 530 pages, Pub: 2013. (Judith Weisberg)
The Lost begins as the story of a boy who grew up in a family haunted by the disappearance of six relatives during the Holocaust. Decades later, spurred by the discovery of a cache of desperate letters written to his grandfather in 1939 and tantalized by fragmentary tales of a terrible betrayal, Daniel Mendelsohn sets out to find the remaining eyewitnesses to his relatives’ fates.
