The haunting testimony of Holocaust survivor Emmie Arbel: arrested, deported, and imprisoned at the age of five, and of the inspirational life she built in its aftermathArrested with her family in her native Holland, deported, held in a series of Nazi concentration camps, and orphaned—all by the age of seven—Emmie Arbel transformed her childhood survival into a lifelong mission to stand against any such other horrors. With her home now in Israel, to where she and her brother emigrated with their foster parents in the wake of the Holocaust, she still frequently travels abroad to report and record her testimony. Working closely with Arbel herself, the acclaimed German graphic artist Barbara Yelin has created a brilliant portrait—what she calls a “visual biography”—of this remarkable woman: her rebellious spirit, her resilient humor, the seriousness of her contemplation. “Surviving is not over,” she reflects. “Surviving is every day.” Emmie Arbel: The Colour of Memory is at once a haunting portrayal of a historical atrocity; an inspiring account of a modern friendship; a beautiful work of art; and a meditation on memory itself. Because, as Yelin has put it, “The long arms of history wrap right around the present.” (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
