An Epiphany in Lilacs

It] will give readers a glimpse into what the experience was like for people who endured and survived the Holocaust. Knowing that the author Iris Dorbian, based this story on her father's own experience of being a Latvian Jew who was in a Displaced Persons camp in Germany, during this time, makes it even more real and hard hitting. "The author's vivid description of the people and the settings makes the reader feel like they are there to experience everything from behind the eyes of the survivors. While the suffering of the survivors is showcased, so is their incredible capacity to move forward and on with their lives. I think that it is impossible to read this book and not be affected for a long time afterward. "I highly recommend An Epiphany in Lilacs: In the Aftermath of the Camps by Iris Dorbian, for readers who are interested in World War II. It should be required reading for history classes."--Paige Lovitt, Reader Views Page Count: 190 Trim Size: 6 x 9 Publish Date: July 8, 2025 Imprint: Milford House Genre: Literary FICTION / Coming of Age FICTION / Literary FICTION / Historical / 20th Century / World War II & Holocaust
