I'm glad Mrs. Bitton-Jackson decided to make her memoirs a trilogy, covering all of the important years and events of her adolescence and early years as an adult--the Shoah, the experience of going home after liberation and then beginning the long ...             I Have Lived a Thousand Years4 reviews Livia Bitton Jackson Perfection Learning, 1999 Amazing and Touching Book I'm surprised I'm the first to comment. I was searching for books on the Holocaust and stumbled upon this one. I went out and bought it, thinking it would be a pretty good read. Not only was I right about that, it turned out to be one of the best books I've ever read. This time period really interests me for some reason, and this book doesn't hold back like some others. I've learned so much more ...             My Bridges of Hope11 reviews Livia Bitton-Jackson Simon Pulse, 2002 Great sequel This is one of the best sequels to a Shoah memoir I've read yet. Too many such sequels fall into the trap of simply recounting what happened next and aren't as compelling as the first book because there's no constant suspense and wondering what's going to happen next, which of these people being spoken about survived and who perished. In this sequel, though, there are a lot of interesting ...             I have lived a Thousand Years-Growing up in the Holocaust165 reviews Livia Bitton-Jackson Scholastic, 1997 Shocking This book is so powerful. I have read many stories of Holocaust survivors, but few if any have presented such a vivid view of the horrors the Jews faced. Some parts were disturbing, but they describe true history, so they are definitely important to read. If you're interested in the Holocaust, this is a great read.             Elli, Coming of Age in the Holocaust Livia E.
