    A remarkable story of two amazing women bound together by a thread.
  

*by M***K on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2014*

Sidonia's Thread is a true story of a mother, who survived the Holocaust, and her daughter, who she raised alone, and the disconnect of their lives they shared together.  Sidonia, a seamstress and a very protective mother, desperately tried to shield her daughter from her past life and refused to answer any of her questions.  Her daughter had to live with anger and resentment towards her mother for not sharing her innermost secrets in order to protect her daughter from her private shame and horrific guilt that she has carried for a lifetime.  Every question was met with her mother's harsh criticism and refusal to further engage.  The unanswered questions further fueled her inner rage and resentment towards her mother.  Years passed by  when her daughter discovered some letters from her mom's past that finally gave  her the answers and opened up the many secrets that were hidden from her all those years.  She also discovered facts about her father, including information that was never to be revealed as to how they met and the secrets regarding her birth.  Sidonia's Thread bound this mother and daughter and weaved it's way of a life together and all the intricate roads and detours the daughter had to face to finally find the truth and answers that she so desperately deserved to know. The threads weaved through a pattern that would never get finished until she was able to sew all the pieces together until it finally fit.  It was a remarkable journey of two very different people who were bound together by a single thread.

    Very touching
  

*by T***O on Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2013*

This is a love story that takes years to unfold...the love of a daughter for the mother who remains a mystery to her for most of her life.  The author writes simply and beautifully about the darkness of the emotional and physical scars of her Holocaust surviving parent.  Understanding her mother takes a lifetime and her mother's passing.  A very touching story of survival, understanding, and family bonds.  May the mother's strength and courage remain with all her descendants.

    Sidonia's Thread:  Holocaust novel
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2014*

Sidonia was the last child in a Jewish family in Hungary during World War II.  Her entire family was lost to her during the Holocaust.  She was witness to her one sister's death and the other members of family were placed in a different line during the 'selection process' when the family entered the camp.  Sidonia survived and came to America with a baby girl.  She worked as a seamstress for many years and became quite successful with those on the street recognizing her creations by observing her daughter's outfits.  There was no husband.  The book is told by the daughter and she uses a sewing book to tell the story.  The book is remarkable!!  I did not want to put it down but keep on reading and did not want it to end either.  Hanna, the Mother , has letters, pictures, forms, etc. in her bedroom and does not share with her daughter her story of birth until she is more or less forced to by her inquisitive daughter.  The pattern is practically a duplicate between the two women;  the materials are carefully chosen for the garments; AND then the seams start to unravel before the thread becomes yellow.My book was downloaded onto my Kindle from AMAZON.  I could recommend this book to everyone I know.  It is a Holocaust story that crosses two/three generations.  Please read this book and know the woman's struggles.
