Summary
:
Marsha Lederman always knew her parents were different, and at five, she learned why: in the kitchen, her mother sat her down and explained about the Holocaust. Decades later, her parents dead and a mother to her own young son, Marsha is reeling in the wake of her divorce. She wants her parents' help, but in their absence, she is gripped by a need to understand the trauma that shaped them, and she begins her own journey into the past, to tell her parents' stories of loss and survival. KISS THE RED STAIRS is a compelling memoir of Holocaust survival, inherited trauma, divorce and discovery that will reassure readers as they navigate their own monumental change.
