A coming-of-age story, beautifully illustrated by French cartoonist David B. , is the tale of a Jewish survivor of Hitler's Europe and his son, a cartoonist who tries to come to terms with his father's story and history itself. As he grows up, the son engages in dialogues with his father about the war years and the Holocaust, seeking to understand how his parents survived. The son then creates a comic book titled “Survivor's Ball,” inspired by conversations with his parents -- the most recent edition of which may well be the most important yet. Featuring an introduction by renowned comics author Art Spiegelman (MAUS) and a moving afterword from American football star Lawrence Taylor.
