RESCUE A Memoir is a prose chapbook from Poetica Publishing.
"Sandra Hurtes has written a memoir of great delicacy and emotional truth, a book that delves into the complex and contradictory meaning of rescue in the lives of Holocaust survivors and their children.The parents were never rescued, and it's too late for the children to try.As this wonderful and worthy book knows quite well: Who then is left to rescue the survivors of the survivors?"
Thane Rosenbaum, author of The Golems of Gotham, Second Hand Smoke, and Elijah Visible

Essays
"...On My Way to Somplace Else is a top pick for memoir collections."
Midwest Book Review
"Survivors seem to fall into two groups: The tell-all and the tell-little, with Hurtes’ mom of the tell-all persuasion. Hurtes writes movingly about the influence of these stories on her life and how they made her the person she is today."
