One Hundred Saturdays: Stella Levi and the Search for a Lost World by Michael Frank

A really stunning and pertinent account of a place through the eyes of an individual that that place produced. Over the course of the book, I fell in love with Stella and was constantly struck by her candor. By the end of the book, though, I found myself relating to her. That relation only helped me to understand the magnitude of the miscarriage of humanity to which she was subjected. This, in turn, helps me contextualize this contemporary moment. It doesn’t exactly change how I think; though, it certainly adds a lot of shading, dimension, and color.
