Flying Couch tells the stories of three unforgettable women. Amy Kurzweil weaves
her own coming-of-age as a young Jewish artist into the narrative of her mother
, a psychologist, and Bubbe, her grandmother, a World War II survivor who escape
d from the Warsaw Ghetto by disguising herself as a gentile. The voices and hist
ories of these wise, hilarious, and very different women create a portait not on
ly of what it means to be part of a family, but also of how each generation bear
s the imprint of t t the past
