In this debut graphic memoir, New York-based artist Ari Richter weaves together two haunting stories - his grand- and great-grandparents' imprisonment in Dachau, Buchenwald, and Auschwitz, and his own awakening to the contemporary rise of authoritarianism and the continuing crisis of anti-Semitism - with delicacy, immediacy, and an attention to surreal detail.
