Description

A very rare kind of picture... A quest that would last, off and on, for more than a decade... To the murdered others, this book is an act of restitution

A very rare kind of picture... A quest that would last, off and on, for more than a decade... To the murdered others, this book is an act of restitution

[Lower] hopes to recreate the details of that day in Miropol and thus reveal the networks of complicity that made the Holocaust possible. Here, she succeeds with a vengeance

A forensic look at the Holocaust in Ukraine... The combination of Lower's original conceit and careful but compelling prose provides a powerful new route into this neglected area of Holocaust history'

Lower's pursuit of the truth is both captivating and meticulous as she attempts to find answers to these questions... Reads like a compelling detective novel'

'An extraordinary and spell-binding new book' Daily Mail.

A riveting and extraordinary expression of historical excavation and literary non-fiction – detective work of the highest and most gripping order

Lower certainly leaves no stone unturned as she recounts her mission in this fascinating book

Lower meticulously probes the background of the photo, which was dated October 13, 1941 and labeled 'Miropol'

An important and moving contribution to Holocaust literature. The Ravine demonstrates how meticulous research, seventy years after the murder took place, can lift the veil of anonymity from both victims and perpetators

Seventy years after the crime, Lower, a historian dedicated to unveiling truths, solves what would otherwise have remained a 'cold case'. Her story is breathtaking

One photograph. That was what it took to start Wendy Lower on an incredible journey of discovery... The Ravine is a compelling read that is micro and macro history at its very best'

A compelling and forensic investigation of mass shooting during the Holocaust in Ukraine. Lower turns detective and works from a single photograph to uncover the truth about a previously unknown atrocity. Brilliant microhistory

A forensic look at the Holocaust in Ukraine

The gargantuan horror of the Holocaust is distilled through a meticulous reconstruction of a single shocking crime. Justice, although delayed, is achieved, but that horror lurks like a menacing fog
