Les Lettres de Louise Jacobson et de ses proches: Fresnes, Drancy, 1942-1943
During the Holocaust, while imprisoned at the Fresnes Prison and then later interned at the Drancy Camp, Louise Jacobson, a French Jewish teenager, wrote letters to her family and friends. Louise, who was denounced by a neighbor for not wearing the yellow star and for suspected communist activity, recounts in these letters her experiences as a young prisoner, her worries, and her plans for when she is liberated. Louise ultimately died in Auschwitz. Her sister Nadia saved the letters and comments on them in this volume.
