- Summary
- "For a long time, to remember the many children who could not grow up, there was nothing. Nothing to say that they had been killed because born Jewish, or even to say that they had lived, that they had laughed, played and cried ... as if they had never been there. " Rachel Jedinak survived the first round of the Vél'd'Hiv in July 1942. Her neighbors, her cousins {u200B}{u200B}or classmates, did not have a chance. After having fought for years to have schools, colleges and high schools put up plaques bearing the names of these forgotten pupils, she pays them a last homage. In this story, tender and delicate, she tells the interminable parts of ossicles on the sidewalks, then the classmates we watch play in the public garden where we are no longer allowed to enter. And finally, stalking, raids, small screaming hot in the Bellevilloise and the escape. Rachel Jedinak finally tells us the war of the most universal of languages: that of children.
