It is the story of how he tried to balance a strong desire to live a normal life and raise a family, with a growing need to create something useful out of his nightmare childhood. It is also a poignant account of how, at age forty-three, he finally found a way to honor his parents and also be true to himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInspirational . . . moving . . . engaging . . . should be required reading.\u003cbr\u003e- Michael Moore \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA riveting and deeply moving human document, filled with the ache and longing of a son bereaved by history.\u003cbr\u003e- Jonathan Kozol \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHeart-wrending, honest memoir . . .

Yet, this extraordinary candor does not diminish his anger at the travesty of justice that deprived him of his mother and father. His story is a personal, anguished search for truth, even while it illuminates a tragic moment in the history of our country.\u003cbr\u003e- Howard Zinn \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI was intrigued by this brilliantly honest memoir in which Robert Meeropol describes his struggle to honor his heritage as the son of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg while striving to create his own identity. He writes powerfully of his childhood years of self-muting, his adult years of self-searching. And he writes with a lawyer's acumen on the question of his parents' guilt or innocence of the crime for which they were executed.\u003cbr\u003e- E. L.
