Artikelomschrijving

  • Two brothers, two tragedies, one heartbreaking story
  • On 16 October 1942, a family in German-occupied Bloemendaal in Holland finds a baby on their doorstep. They call him Remi, after Nobody's Boy. They cannot save the baby. The Nazis take the foundling to the Jewish nursery in Amsterdam, opposite the Hollandsche Schouwburg (The Dutch Theater), from where the deportations to transit camp Westerbork are carried out. Remi stays there for six months and becomes the darling of both the nursery staff and a German guard.
    Meanwhile, Remi's mother is arrested and murdered in concentration camp Sobibor. His father and his 12-year older brother Eddy manage to survive the war, but at his hiding places Eddy was often as alone as the boy in Hector Malot's book.
    Long after his father's death - who was never able to talk about the fate of his wife and child - Eddy begins to search for his little brother. Only in 2002 does he finally find out what really happened to him.
    In this twin biography, journalist Frank van Kolfschooten reconstructs the two brothers' history.
