Well written, and Levison does her best to create links among what feels to me like three different books: what her parents' endured during the Holocaust and their lives afterwards, the author's life, and the murder of a young woman and the investigation that followed. A body is discovered at the summer home of the author's parents---everything is connected. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
After surviving the horrors of the Holocaust-in ghettos, on death marches, and in concentration camps-a young couple seeks refuge in Canada. They settle into a new life, certain that the terrors of their past are behind them. They build themselves a cozy little cottage on a lake in Muskoka, a cottage that becomes emblematic of their victory over the Nazis. The charming retreat is a safe haven, a refuge from haunted memories. That is, until a single act of unspeakable violence defiles their sanctuary. Poking around the dark crawl space beneath their cottage, they discover a wooden crate, nailed tightly shut and almost hidden from view. Nothing could have prepared them for the horror of the crate's contents-or how the peace and tranquility of their lives would be shattered. Now, their daughter, Debbie Levison, an award-winning journalist, tells the extraordinary account of her parents' ordeals, both in one of the darkest times in world history and their present-day lives. Written in searing, lyrical prose, The Crate: A Story of War, a Murder, and Justice examines man's seemingly limitless capacity for evil . . . but also, his capacity for good. Contains mature themes.
