"[A] provocative graphic memoir debut. ... By turns funny and horrifying, it adds up to a telling study of how the past informs the present.-- ""Publishers Weekly"" Amid a crowded landscape of literature by Holocaust survivors and their descendants, Never Again Will I Visit Auschwitz stands out for the way in which it relentlessly questions the author's own assumptions about his family, about memory, and about himself.-- ""Foreword"" Never Again... is an impressive feat of family excavation and a heartrending story about inheritance. Richter narrates his grandparents' harrowing tales of survival with graphic ingenuity while honoring the enduring sources of Jewish trauma. And he never forgets humor, the balm for our grief. I'm so glad this book exists--Amy Kurzweil, author of Flying Couch: A Graphic Memoir and Artificial: A Love Story"
