Reception and reviews
There are many, mostly positive, reviews of Bernice Eisenstein's memoir I was a child of Holocaust survivors (2006). Below will be a few examples and sources that review Eisenstein's memoir.
“...I savoured Bernice Eisenstein’s beautifully conceived and executed illustrated memoir, I was a child of Holocaust Survivors, with such wonder and, yes, pleasure”.
- Naves, the Gazette.
“Eisenstein’s is a bittersweet tale...”
- Morris, Canadian Lit.
“I was a Child of Holocaust Survivors is beautifully conceived and constructed, intimate and engrossing”
- Garvie, Quill & Quire
“The answer Bernice Eisenstein offers through her delicate art and clever words is to build, nurture, observe and revisit relationships with one loved one at a time. Whether they are a child of the Holocaust or not”.
- Tousignant
