I’d love to encourage TPM readers to take a moment to read a heart-wrenching excerpt from Paper Love: Searching for the Girl My Grandfather Left Behind by Sarah Wildman. It’s a fantastic book, and the excerpt, about the correspondence between her grandfather and those seeking to get Valy out of the Reich. Back then, $300 was an insurmountable sum for a recent immigrant. It’s a fascinating read.
