"" Erna Paris shone her flashlight into many dark corners of human history during her life. In this, her last book, she gives us insights and warnings that couldn't be more timely."" - Margaret Atwood "" Erna Paris is always impressive in her humanity and deep personal understanding of contemporary history."" - The Rt. Hon. Adrienne Clarkson """" Erna Paris' memoir takes us down the crisscrossing paths of her personal life, her career as a writer and her investigation of how we remember ? sometimes misremember - a dozen epic historical and contemporary struggles for social justice and tolerance. All these paths are laid down in impeccable prose, paved with shrewd insight and careful research and illuminated by Paris? admirable ability to combine unflinching righteousness with a sympathy for human frailty. A life well-lived, a book that demands to be read."" - Harry Arthurs
