This book recounts the author's discovery of a missing person notice for 15-year-old Dora Bruder in a December 1941 issue of Paris Soir. Moved by the notice, the author embarks on an investigation into her fate. He learns she vanished from a convent school during the Occupation, possibly running away on a cold night amidst German reprisals. His search eventually leads him to a list of Jews deported to Auschwitz in September 1942. The fragments uncovered about the Bruder family become a reflection on the immense losses of the era, including lost people, stories, and history. Modiano's work revisits the atmosphere of occupied Paris and confronts his own family history while seeking to understand Dora Bruder's fate.
