A Holocaust survivor and mother, Katin's world is turned upside down by the news that her adult son is moving to Berlin, a city she's villainized for the past forty years. As she struggles to accept her son's decision, she visits the city twice, first to see her son and then to attend a museum gala featuring her own artwork. What she witnesses firsthand is a city coming to terms with its traumatic past, much as Katin is herself. \u003ci\u003eLetting It Go\u003c\/i\u003e is a deft and careful balance: wry, self-deprecating anecdotes counterpoint a serious account of the myriad ways trauma inflects daily existence, both for survivors and for their families.\u003cbr\u003eKatin's first book, \u003ci\u003eWe Are On Our Own\u003c\/i\u003e, was a memoir of her childhood, detailing how she and her mother hid in the Hungarian countryside, disguising themselves as a peasant woman and her illegitimate child in order to escape the Nazis. The stunning story, along with Katin's gorgeous pencil work, immediately garnered acclaim in the comics world and beyond. With \u003ci\u003eLetting It Go\u003c\/i\u003e, Katin's storytelling and artistic skills allow her to explore a voice and perspective like no other found in the medium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Drawn \u0026amp; Quarterly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/19\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781770461031\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.81h x 7.94w x 0.85d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/25\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2013 pg. 46\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Miriam Katin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43112135000245,"sku":"9781770461031","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_9a484373-4c32-4c32-848e-f19e589c3fcc.jpg?v=1693929459","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/letting-it-go-9781770461031","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
