MEMOIR BOOKS
Never Make a Sound
by Fanen Chiahemen
Paperback ISBN: 9781989134153
A young girl growing up in a turbulent family setting creates a secret inner world to escape her toxic environment. Emotionally neglected, confused and dislocated, she begins to exhibit erratic behaviour, and while the adults around her are unable to respond with love, her fantasy activity intensifies, sowing the seeds of alienation and a distorted self-image. Told through the eyes of a child in a suite of stories and poetry, Never Make a Sound is a raw, intimate journey of a young girl finding a way to survive in an impossible situation. A true story of resilience and the strength of the human spirit.
Rare Breed: A Chinese Jewish Quest
by Irene Chu
Paperback ISBN: 9780995167728
E-Book ISBN: 9780995167735
We, as readers, even as historians, too often assume that the Jewish experience unfolded only in the Middle East and in Europe and North America. In this we are missing an entire page of Jewish history. We in the West are blinded by the experience—often not happy ones—of Jews in the West. The time has come that we look to the East, to fill in this missing page, to publish the memoirs and diaries and history that tell of the experience of the Jewish people in the Eastern world.
When Walls Become Bridges: A Journey of Discovery to Heal and Conquer Hatred
by Stuart Lewis
Paperback ISBN: 9781989134078
E-Book ISBN: 9781370082216
In a time when divisions kept much of the world apart, this narrative begins with a true account of a Jewish man in the heart of the Cold War. On a spontaneous trip to East Berlin, Stuart Lewis meets a man named Frank who lived within the confines of the Communist Soviet system. When Stuart returns to Canada their unexpected relationship flourishes. Through an exchange of private letters their intimate journey endures as they learn how to navigate through a hostile world of political uncertainty. A timeless need, Lewis’ search for truth dissolves borders. His honest and down-to-earth account is relevant in a world expressing its deepest nightmares.
