Description
In a book that's been called funny, wacky and heartbreaking, Linda Pressman, the child of two Holocaust Survivors, tells what it's like to grow up with parents who have survived the unsurvivable, who land in Skokie, an idyllic northern suburb of Chicago, where they're suddenly free to live their lives, yet find their past has arrived with them. In Looking Up: A Memoir of Sisters, Survivors and Skokie, a book both funny and somber and a story universal in its scope, Linda Pressman creates an unforgettable world of adolescent angst and traumatized parents amid the suburban world of the 60s and 70s, ultimately finding that her parents' stories are her own.
