Do Not Disclose, A Memoir of Family Secrets Lost and Found
by Leora Krygier, Leora Krygier
Happy Publication Day!
Leora Krygier is a second-generation Holocaust survivor who finds a postcard in an antique shop from WWII with the words “DO NOT DISCLOSE” underlined. This begins a year long journey to learn about the man who sent the postcard while uncovering secrets about her family along the way.
Krygier writes in a lyrical style while weaving memories of her past with her present. I loved that there was some mystery in this story and kept trying to figure out who sent the postcard, and if/how it would relate to the secrets of her past.
I would recommend this memoir to anyone who enjoys reading about World War II and uncovering the past. Also, the chapters are short which is always a plus in my mind. My only issue was that it started off a little slow so I struggled to get into the story at first.
Thank you @BookSparks and @leorakrygierauthor for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.
