This powerful book tells the story of Anne Skorecki Levy, a
Holocaust survivor who transformed the horrors of her childhood
into a passionate mission to defeat the political menace of reputed
neo-Nazi and Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. The first book to
connect the prewar and wartime experiences of Jewish survivors to
the lives they subsequently made for themselves in the United
States, Troubled Memory is also a dramatic testament to how the
experiences of survivors as new Americans spurred their willingness
to bear witness. Perhaps the only family to survive the liquidation
of the Warsaw Ghetto as a group, the Skoreckis evaded deportation
to Treblinka by posing as Aryans. The family eventually made their
way to New Orleans, where they became part of a vibrant Jewish
community. Lawrence Powell traces their dramatic odyssey and
explores the events that eventually triggered Anne Skorecki Levy's
brave decision to honor the suffering of the past by confronting
the recurring specter of racist hatred.
