"…make[s] a contribution to our knowledge of the Holocaust." — AJL Reviews"In interviews, the survivors revealed the social and psychological struggles they have had to cope with over the years. Most have pursued productive careers and raised families. Told in interview or narrative form, both ways are illuminating and made more so by Betty Becker-Theye's unusually fluent translation." — Sacramento Book Review"The Hidden Children of France documents the stolen childhoods of eighteen Holocaust survivors who are among the last witnesses of the Nazi era. During this time The New School's University in Exile brought to safety over 180 great scholars whose very lives, just like these children, were threatened by National Socialism and the evil of Hitler. It is through the stories of survivors that we preserve the truth and history of the past and educate our future generations to ensure compassion and justice for all." — Bob Kerrey, President, The New School"Meticulous translation. Unlike some testimony literature where the voice recording prevails, in this collection each testimony retains an individual voice." — Marilyn Gaddis Rose, translator of Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve's Volupté: The Sensual Man
