Inside the Episode:

In this episode of the Just the Right Book Podcast, Roxanne sits down with author Judy Batalion to discuss the unexpected journey that led to her writing The Light of Days. Judy shares her deeply personal and unconventional path, which began while living in London and exploring her Jewish identity in a predominantly non-Jewish environment. As the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, she delved into how the trauma of the Holocaust influenced her anxiety and perception of danger. Initially intended as a comic performance piece, this exploration evolved into a profound examination of intergenerational trauma and resilience.
