Rezension zu „Good Neighbors, Bad Times: Echoes of My Father's German Village “
"[Schwartz's] writing is genial and lucid and her aim is to understand how decent people remember a dishonorable past." Publishers Weekly "Thoughtfully told... With an open spirit, Schwartz looks at individual struggles and choices in order to better understand the nature of heroism and loyalty, the meaning of good and evil, writ large and small." Jewish Week "Brilliant... A book that should be read by all." Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies "Schwartz has augmented our limited capacity to comprehend the Holocaust, which is ultimately an incomprehensible phenomenon." National Jewish Post & Opinion
