Description:
An astonishing memoir of the Holocaust through the eyes of a child, and an exquisite meditation on memory and trauma
Aharon Appelfeld was the beloved only child of middle-class Jewish parents living in what is now Ukraine at the outbreak of World War Two. Their peaceful life is upended when soldiers invade their town. His mother is shot dead in her own garden. The then-seven-year-old Aharon does not witness her murder, but he does hear her scream.
Aharon and his father are sent to a concentration camp and separated. Memory and trauma combine to create a patchwork of reminiscences. Aharon is ten years old when he escapes from the camp into the forests of Ukraine, and is overwhelmed by the sight of an apple tree laden with fruit.
Living off the land for two years before making the long journey south to Italy and eventually Israel and freedom, Appelfeld finally found a home in which he could make a life for himself, eventually becoming one of Israel's most acclaimed writers. This is the extraordinary and painful memoir of his childhood and youth and a compelling account of a boy coming of age in a hostile world.

Sturdy and Functional
Color: White, Size: 3 layer
Sturdy and well-made. The drawers glide easily. Some other reviewers complained that the handles are hard to pull open, but I did not have that problem at all. I actually bought it to store my hair barrettes so that they stay nice. With the different compartments shapes, I was able to find places for thin, long barrettes, large bow barrettes, and long headbands. It is just perfect.

good quality and weight
Color: Black
I used mine as a place to put misc papers and notes for three employees in our office. They work great. They are not flimsy at all and have a nice appearance. No sharp corners and no defects. They are just as I hoped they would be

Exactly what I needed
Color: Black
Trays work great at my desk. I use them for my envelopes, items needing signatures and another for pending pickup. They are sturdy and will last forever.
