My Secret Camera
My Secret Camera: Life in the Lodz Ghetto is a moving historical photobook built around Mendel Grossman’s clandestine black-and-white photographs of daily life inside the Łódź Ghetto during the Holocaust. Frank Dabba Smith’s concise text accompanies the images, with an introduction by Howard Jacobson. The photographs document deprivation and persecution while preserving intimate evidence of community, resilience and humanity under extraordinary circumstances.
This is the 2003 first paperback edition and first printing from Frances Lincoln Limited, identified by the edition statement and complete number line on the copyright page. ISBN 0-7112-2119-7. The book contains 40 pages and is approximately 27.3 x 24.8 cm, with an estimated unpackaged weight of roughly 0.2–0.3 kg. It was produced as a softcover and therefore has no dust jacket by design.
The work was selected as a Sydney Taylor Notable Book for Older Readers. It presents 17 photographs from Grossman’s surviving record, combining visual documentation with an accessible narrative suitable for younger readers, educators and adult readers interested in Holocaust studies, Jewish history, documentary photography and World War II.
Very Good condition, with light handling and minor edge or corner wear to the softcover. The photographed copyright page and representative interior spreads appear clean and bright, without visible writing, tears or prominent staining. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description. The book will be packaged carefully to help protect its wide-format covers and pages in transit.
