Reviews
Praise for The Mighty Franks : "It was so good that I had to read it twice." -- The New Statesman "[Michael Frank] seems to have had an unearthly quality of perspective...There is a lastingly sane quality to his riveting memoir that's reminiscent of To Kill a Mockingbird.... an extraordinary tale." -- The Daily Telegraph "A narrative that could unfold only in a place where fantasy and reality blur with treacherous ease....The author connects the dots subtly between his relatives' capacity for self-invention and their employment in the dream factory....[A] probing and radiantly polished account." -- The New York Times "A marvelous, clear-eyed memoir....almost thriller-like....beautifully written." -- The Wall Street Journal "Frank brings Proustian acuity and razor-sharp prose to family dramas as primal, and eccentrically insular, as they come." -- The Atlantic "Frank is a master of self-reflection, under the bowl of blue sky and in those closeted canyons. He says nothing in an ordinary way; everything has a dreamlike smoothness, born out of his extended act of retrieval and the remembered violence of emotion and inconstancy....I doubt you'll read a better memoir this year. The Mighty Franks is full of humour and brittle irony." -- The Guardian "Witty, moving...beautifully written and timely." -- TLS "Immediate, gut-wrenching...deeply involving." --Shelf Awareness "Extraordinary... More than a memoir, this is really a study of human pathology, a book that should be widely read for its insights into families and the process of growing up." -- Library Journal "Readers will be enthralled." --Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
One of Wall Street Journal 's Ten Best Books of the Year * Winner of the National Jewish Book Awards for Holocaust Memoir and Sephardic Culture * Recipient of the Jewish Book Council's Natan Notable Book Award * Winner of the Sophie Brody Medal The remarkable story of ninety-nine-year-old Stella Levi whose conversations with the author over the course of six years bring to life the vibrant world of Jewish Rhodes, the deportation to Auschwitz that extinguished ninety percent of her community, and the resilience and wisdom of the woman who lived to tell the tale. With nearly a century of life behind her, Stella Levi had never before spoken in detail about her past. Then she met Michael Frank. He came to her Greenwich Village apartment one Saturday afternoon to ask her a question about the Juderia, the neighborhood on the Greek island of Rhodes where she'd grown up in a Jewish community that had thrived there for half a millennium. Neither of them could know this was the first of one hundred Saturdays over the course of six years that they would spend in each other's company. During these meetings Stella traveled back in time to conjure what it felt like to come of age on this luminous, legendary island in the eastern Aegean, which the Italians conquered in 1912, began governing as an official colonial possession in 1923, and continued to administer even after the Germans seized control in September 1943. The following July, the Germans rounded up all 1,700-plus residents of the Juderia and sent them first by boat and then by train to Auschwitz on what was the longest journey--measured by both time and distance--of any of the deportations. Ninety percent of them were murdered upon arrival. Probing and courageous, candid and sly, Stella is a magical modern-day Scheherazade whose stories reveal what it was like to grow up in an extraordinary place in an extraordinary time--and to construct a life after that place has vanished. One Hundred Saturdays is a portrait of one of the last survivors drawn at nearly the last possible moment, as well as an account of a tender and transformative friendship between storyteller and listener, offering a powerful "reminder that the ability to listen thoughtfully is a rare and significant gift" ( The Wall Street Journal).
