She finished every hem with lace seam binding. A fitting ending to the Sidonia's Thread series of memoirs about a mother and daughter who create a life in America after the ashes of the Holocaust "A dynamic story of historical significance...The alternate reality is beautifully written."--Barbara Bergren, author of Witness For My Father Sidonia's Seam Binding is the last book in the Sidonia's Thread trilogy. In this latest volume, Hanna Perlstein Marcus finally describes how she developed her own life's ambitions and behavioral style apart from her designer and dressma ker mother Sidonia's vision for her. While recounting the events of her real life with her Holocaust survivor mother during her adolescence and adulthood, Hanna Perlstein Marcus also takes the reader into her imagined alternate version of Sidonia's life as though she had never been born. How would Sidonia's life have evolved without her in it? Combined with an expansive look back into her Hungarian ancestry, devastated by the Holocaust, the author discovers parts of her persona and lifestyle that she never recognized before. As she explores her experiences, emotions, aspiratons, imagination, and heritage, she understands all the elements so mixed to produce the distinctive human qualities of her nature.
