"Etoile jaune, étoile rouge" raconte l'histoire poignante d'Alex Levin, un jeune garçon juif, confronté aux horreurs de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Ce récit met en lumière son parcours et les défis qu'il doit surmonter dans un contexte de guerre et de persécution.
Under the Yellow & Red Stars is a remarkable story of survival, coming of age and homecoming after years as a stranger in a strange land. Alex Levin was only ten years old when he ran deep into the forest after the Germans invaded his hometown of Rokitno and only twelve when he emerged from hiding to find that he had neither parents nor a community to return to. A harrowing tale of escape, endurance and exceptional emotional resilience, Levin's story also draws us into his later life as an officer and eventual outcast in the USSR, and as an immigrant who successfully builds a new life in Canada. This poetically written memoir is imbued with loss and pain, but also with the optimistic spirit of a boy determined to survive.

The book highlights the disconnect between clinical examination and surgical involvement for residents and pediatric ophthalmology fellows. It emphasizes the importance of continuity in patient care, as these medical professionals often do not participate in the surgeries of the patients they examine, nor do they typically track postoperative progress. This gap in experience may hinder their comprehensive understanding of patient outcomes.
