"Sharon Hart-Green writes passionately and intelligently about trauma, history and the true meaning of home. This novel is poignant and compassionate, vividly evoked and deeply satisfying."
Leah Kaminsky
"Evocative and heart-wrenchingly beautiful, Come Back for Me is a must read for anyone with a moral conscience and a soul."
Joseph Kertes
"Sharon Hart-Green's Come Back for Me is a vital novel that begins in bad times and ends in better times. It's a beautifully told story about a family that is all but destroyed during the Holocaust, but whose few survivors carry on and, in the case of Artur Mandelkorn, find some measure of success and contentment, even if the losses of the past are forever with him. Juxtaposed to the Old World story is a New World story that is poignant because it records the trials and tribulations of a normal life with a deeply troubled one as its backdrop. Come Back for Me is an important book."
Tova Mirvis
"…a deeply affecting novel that explores unbearable loss and the possibility of starting again."
Jonathan Wilson
"Sharon Hart-Green writes with great generosity of heart and a searing sense of what it means to be buffeted by history."
Ruchama Feuerman
"A gripping tale told from a place in the heart that is both broken and alive."
Thane Rosenbaum
"This wonderful debut novel, with great sensitivity and tenderness, captures the emotional contours of loss and renewal that haunt the post-Holocaust universe… a joy to read."
Amy Gottlieb
"With tenderness and clarity, Sharon Hart-Green's novel tells the story of how one generation transforms inherited trauma into a hopeful future… a lovely debut."
