Summary: To the chagrin of her parents - Polish Jews who survived the Holocaust - Ellen became a Buddhist at 19, nearly tearing her family apart. Three decades later, on a German train, she felt the presence of spirits who died in the Holocaust - their question "How can you still believe in basic goodness?" sent her on a series of life-chainging journeys to Poland to find the answer. Beyond recovering a lost family history, Buried Rivers reveals powerful connections between spirituality and trauma; intimately explores family loyalty, religious boundaries, and the invisitble blessing of ancestors; and includes an Auschwitz survivor account by the author's uncle. ;
