In her debut, Reiss recounted her period of hiding in an attic in Holland during the Holocaust. At Jim's encouragement, Reiss revisited Holland to research and remember her experiences. Jim joined her there, but was distraught and enigmatic; he returned to America and committed suicide. Reiss's exploration of her World War II life intertwines tragically with her husband's death in this stunning, heartfelt read. In 1969, Reiss made the trip to Holland to chronicle the two years, seven months, and one day she had spent hiding from the Nazis. Subtle and disturbing, the book is a powerful consideration of memory, violence, and loss, told in a stunning and sparse narrative style.
