THE BRITISH BOOK AWARDS NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017
SUNDAY TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER
When international lawyer Philippe Sands receives an invitation to give a lecture in the Ukrainian city of Lviv, he embarks on a journey to uncover the hidden history of his family. During this journey, he reveals an astonishing series of coincidences that lead him halfway across the world, to the roots of international law at the Nuremberg trials.
He combines the stories of the two Nuremberg prosecutors (Hersch Lauterpacht and Rafael Lemkin), who coined the crimes of genocide and crimes against humanity, the Nazi governor responsible for the murder of thousands in Lviv (Hans Frank), as well as incredible acts of courageous resistance during the war.
EAST WEST STREET is an unforgettable blend of memoir and historical detection, and a powerful reflective approach to how memory, crime, and guilt leave marks on many generations.
