Books like Something Remains by Inge Barth-grozinger


Erich Levi struggles to understand his father’s gloom when the Nazis rise to power, preoccupied with grades, friendships, and preparing for his bar mitzvah. As the political climate worsens, Erich faces prejudice: teachers give him lower grades because he is Jewish, Hitler Youth boys bully him, and he is barred from sports and celebrations. His family’s business suffers, and the house feels tighter. Yet many friends and neighbors remain loyal, risking their safety to support the Levi family. With these brave allies and his steadfast faith, Erich holds onto his dreams, refusing to believe that his homeland will become permanently hostile.
