About the Book

In this rich and riveting narrative, a writer's search for the truth behind his family's tragic past in World War II becomes a remarkably original epic—part memoir, part reportage, part mystery, and part scholarly detective work—that brilliantly explores the nature of time and memory, family and history.The Lost begins as the story of a boy who grew up in a family haunted by the disappearance of six relatives during the Holocaust—an unmentionable subject that gripped his imagination from earliest childhood. Decades later, spurred by the discovery of a cache of desperate letters written to his grandfather in 1939 and tantalized by fragmentary tales of a terrible betrayal, Daniel Mendelsohn sets out to find the remaining eyewitnesses to his relatives' fates. That quest eventually takes him to a dozen countries on four continents and forces him to confront the wrenching discrepancies between the histories we live and the stories we tell. And it leads him, finally, back to the small Ukrainian town where his family's story began, and where the solution to a decades-old mystery awaits him.Deftly moving between past and present, interweaving a world-wandering odyssey with childhood memories of a now-lost generation of immigrant Jews and provocative ruminations on biblical texts and Jewish history, The Lost transforms the story of one family into a profound, morally searching meditation on our fragile hold on the past. Deeply personal, grippingly suspenseful, and beautifully written, this literary tour de force illuminates all that is lost, and found, in the passage of time.***Depuis qu’il est enfant, Daniel Mendelsohn sait que son grand-oncle Shmiel, sa femme et leurs quatre filles ont ete tues, quelque part dans l’est de la Pologne, en 1941. Comment, quand, ou exactement ? Nul ne peut lui en dire plus. Et puis il decouvre ces lettres desesperees ecrites en 1939 par Shmiel a son frere, installe en Amerique, des lettres pressant sa famille de les aider a partir, des lettres demeurees sans reponse... Parce qu’il a voulu savoir ce qui s’est passe, parce qu’il a voulu donner un visage a ces six disparus, Daniel Mendelsohn est parti sur leurs traces, rencontrant, annee apres annee, des temoins epars dans une douzaine de pays. Cette quete, il en a fait un livre, puzzle vertigineux, roman policier haletant, plongee dans l’Histoire et l’oubli – un chef-d’œuvre.« Daniel Mendelsohn a ecrit une œuvre puissamment emouvante sur le passe " ; perdu " ; d’une famille, qui rappelle a la fois l’opulence des œuvres en prose de Proust et les textes elliptiques de W.G. Sebald. Une reussite exceptionnelle. » Joyce Carol Oates« Les Disparus est une bouleversante enquete de detective a part entiere, doublee d’un questionnement sur les interventions enigmatiques de Dieu dans les affaires humaines, et approfondie par une reflexion sur la part d’ineluctable et d’incomprehensible que le hasard introduit dans l’Histoire. » John Maxwell Cœtzee« Entre epopee et intimite, meditation et suspense, tragedie et hilarite, Les Disparus est un livre merveilleux. » Jonathan Safran Fœr « Mendelsohn reussit a assembler un tableau immensement humain dans lequel chaque temoin a un visage et chaque visage une histoire et un destin. » Elie Wiesel
