'A beautiful work that is in turn haunting, touching and redemptive' SIMON SEBAG MONTEFIORE'A profoundly emotional book, and a brave one' THE NEW YORKER'Generous in spirit, devoid of self-pity, and an authentic literary achievement' ANDREW SOLOMONWhen Luiz Schwarcz was a child, he knew very little about his grandfather L ios, a Hungarian Jew. Only later would he learn that L ios had ordered his son, Luiz's father, to leap from a train taking them to a Nazi death camp, while L ios himself was carried on to his death. What Luiz did know was that his father's melancholia haunted the house he grew up in.Compassionate and tender, The Absent Moon interrogates a personal story of inherited trauma through a family history of murder, silence and the long echo of the Holocaust across generations.'Brave, honest, devastating, and hopeful ... Schwarcz is a masterful storyteller' ARIANA NEUMANN'A lyrical and intimate portrait of the author's lifelong, harrowing battle with depression' ABRAHAM VERGHESE
