Journalist Nina Siegal, who grew up in a family that had survived the Holocaust in Europe, had always wondered about the experience of regular people during World War II. She had heard stories of the war as a child and Anne Franks diary, but the tales were either crafted as moral lessons -- to never waste food, to be grateful for all you receive, to hide your silver -- or told with a punch line. The details of the past went untold in an effort to make it easier assimilate into American life. When Siegal moved to Amsterdam as an adult, those questions came up again, as did another horrifying one: Why did seventy five percent of the Dutch Jewish community perish in the war, while in other Western European countries the proportions were significantly lower? How did this square with the narratives of Dutch resistance she had heard so much about and in what way did it relate to the famed tolerance people in the Netherlands were always talking about? Perhaps more importantly, how could she raise a Jewish child in this country without knowing these answers? Searching and singular, The Diary Keepers mines the diaries of ordinary citizens to understand the nature of resistance, the workings of memory, and the ways we reflect on, commemorate, and re-envision the past. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Personal narratives, Dutch. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Taber, Catherine, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Lamia, Jenna, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Meskimen, Jim, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Reed, Maggi-Meg, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Ortego, Mike, $e narrator. 700 1 $a McNamara, Nan, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Shapiro, Rob, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Petkoff, Robert, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Cohen, Steven Jay $c (Actor), $e narrator. 710 2 $a Playaway Digital Audio, $e issuing body. 710 2 $a Playaway Products, LLC., $e issuing body. 941 $a 2 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012017.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305022318.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F0C50F620B4111EEB112B7654DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IW3Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
