Belonging: A German Reckons with History and Home

In Belonging: A German Reckons with History and Home, writer-artist Nora Krug explores her own family's past and her complicated relationship with German identity in the wake of the Holocaust. This single-issue graphic memoir, published by Simon and Schuster in 2019, weaves together archival documents, family photographs, and hand-drawn illustrations to confront the weight of inherited history. Krug's deeply personal work matters as a nuanced, visually rich meditation on memory, guilt, and the search for belonging across generations.
