From the award-winning memoirist, critic, and best-selling author: a deeply moving tale of a father and son's transformative journey in reading - and reliving - Homer's epic masterpiece.
Mendelsohn grew up in a family haunted by the disappearance of six relatives during the Holocaust--an unmentionable subject during his childhood. Decades later, he embarked on a hunt for the remaining eyewitnesses of his relatives fates. This is their story.
