Jacobsen, Ruth
1 Reviews

YA
Recalling a childhood in which she was separated from her parents and moved from one hiding place to another to evade the Nazis, Jacobsen's memoir is fragmentary in structure and distant in tone; the most haunting sections describe her family's post-war experiences. The author-artist's own dark and disturbing collage illustrations will probably be most appreciated by adults.
