Julie Brill's book, "Hidden in Plain Sight: A Family Memoir and the Untold Story of the Holocaust in Serbia," unveils the overlooked narratives of Jewish survival and tragedy during the Holocaust in Serbia. Through a conversation moderated by Amy E. Schwartz, Brill shares personal revelations about her father's experience as a child survivor, detailing the secrecy surrounding her grandfather's murder by Nazis, and the ensuing generational trauma. This dialogue highlights the broader context of Holocaust history in Yugoslavia, often overshadowed in mainstream discourse, and sheds light on the long-lasting impacts of these harrowing experiences on survivors and their descendants, particularly in recognition of Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day.
