Originally published in 2009 as a hardback book, this compelling historical memoir of a holocaust survivor is now available in paperback and ebook formats.

Months after World War II officially ends, a 15-year-old boy still hides in a potato field. The horror of the Holocaust is followed by the horror of survival. The question “Why me?” haunts survivors for the rest of our lives. For some of us, life is only possible under the anesthesia of silence. After 63 years, Leon Rubinstein has broken his silence with this book. As I Am Presently Known is a remarkable story of life’s victory over death and about one generation passing the torch to another.

Marian Marzynski, Holocaust survivor, documentary filmmaker and author of acclaimed film Shtetl

The Other Sister is American story that is a tribute to Hungarian immigrant women and their families, who arrived in America during the early 20th century. At 478 print pages, the ebook is a more affordable alternative. The novel can now be purchased as a print or ebook on Amazon.

The Other Sister is a passionate, startling and, wonderfully readable novel about generations of an immigrant family during the first half of the twentieth century. Its momentum shimmers with the presence and evanescence of life’s everyday and extraordinary moments. While Patricia Valdata illuminates the ways that history affects individual lives, the real star of the story is the individual. Brimming with unforgettable characters, The Other Sister is to be treasured.
