- Kiss the red stairs : the Holocaust, once removed / by Lederman, Marsha(Western arts correspondent),author.;

Decades later, her parents dead and a mother to her own young son, Marsha is reeling in the wake of her divorce. She wants her parents' help, but in their absence, she is gripped by a need to understand the trauma that shaped them, and she begins her own journey into the past, to tell her parents' stories of loss and survival.

- October 7th : searching for the humanitarian middle / by Lederman, Marsha(Western arts correspondent),author.;
"In this emotional missive from the diaspora, Globe and Mail columnist Marsha Lederman writes from the humanitarian middle of the Israel-Palestine conflict. The best-selling and award-winning author and journalist reflects, with deep empathy, on the horrific October 7th attacks on Israeli citizens, rising anti-Semitism, and the brutal violence against civilians in Gaza. As one of the leading Canadian voices on Jewish identity, Lederman's impassioned work in the Globe has been a lifeline for readers since October 7th, 2023. This book captures the pain of so many: Marsha's prose has a way of cutting through the noise and capturing the humanity behind the headlines. She makes room for the reader to be conflicted, grieving, angry and unsure, and is with them through that process as she, like all of us, grapples with a new reality. As someone who is firmly against Netanyahu, believes in a two-state solution, and is a daughter of Holocaust survivors terrified by the rise in anti-semitism, Marsha's writing has captured the full complexity of the experience of reconciling an abhorrence of the violence against Israelis and Palestinians with the trauma and fear of rising prejudice around the world. This collection is a crucial archive capturing, in real time, a period of deep division with care, empathy, and grief."--- Subjects: Antisemitism; Arab-Israeli conflict; Israel-Hamas War, 2023-; Jews, Israeli; October 7 Hamas Attack, Israel, 2023.; Palestinian Arabs; War and society; War and society;
