Shattered 50 Years of Silence, Felicia Steigman Carmelly’s 1997 hardcover memoir, recounts a Romanian-Jewish woman’s survival through the Holocaust and the long aftermath of secrecy. Told with unflinching clarity, the book blends personal memory with wartime history, making it a compelling addition to World War II, biography, or Eastern-European history collections.

This copy is warmly inscribed—perfect for gift-giving or for readers who value a personal connection to the past. Bound in sturdy cloth boards from Abbeyfeild Publishers, it retains its shelf presence despite gentle aging.

Condition notes: a previous owner added a few pen lines on the inner back cover, and the closed page edges show light discoloration, common in late-’90s paper. The pages inside remain clean, tight, and fully readable.

Collectors of Carmelly’s work and scholars of Romanian Jewish autobiography will appreciate both the rarity of the first printing and the intimate touch of the inscription.
