 Troubled
Memory : Anne Levy, the Holocaust, and David Duke's Louisiana by
Lawrence
N. Powell, 10:45 am session. "In this remarkable book, a gifted storyteller and distinguished
historian of the American South makes us understand--in a way no other
American writer has--how and why the history of the Holocaust bears so
directly and importantly upon contemporary American life. Troubled Memory
is an epic. It is the first work to explain and relate the miracle of
Jewish survival in the Holocaust to the problems of racial politics,
cultural integration, and civil courage in post-World War II America.
There is nothing else even remotely approaching this book in conceptual
brilliance, in scope and scale, and in the mastery of such a range of
sources so skillfully woven into a narrative of such astonishing literary
power. This is both a distinguished and original work of history and an
inspiring, unforgettable family story. If you want to read one book--just
one--about what it means to become an American in the late twentieth
century, read Troubled Memory."--Charles W. Sydnor Jr., author of
