Wonderful interview! Can't wait to read this book. Love hearing about the backstory--it takes so much courage and persistence to be a memoirist. Congratulations to Julie and wishing her much success sharing this fascinating, under-reported piece of Holocaust history.
Great interview. Thank you, Sari and Julie. So much in this one, definitely on the re-read list, and looking forward to the book as well. Couple lines that particularly jumped out: "No one talked about Yugoslavia so it seemed to me that even though my grandfather was murdered, it both was and wasn’t part of the Holocaust. Now I understand that you need survivors to tell the stories." and "They were ordinary people, which is precisely why their story is important."

Nighttime is the time we re-experience trauma—whether through dreams or sleeplessness. Morning is the time to transform it into art.
Ladinos in Serbia? Who knew?🤷🏽 Thank you.
We are storytellers, what a wonderful way to manage intergenerational, inherited trauma - a gift for your family and beyond. Thank you 🙏

Lovely interview. FWIW…the “Who is another writer you took inspiration from in producing this book?” Appears twice….
