The Hare with Amber Eyes

A Family's Century of Art and Loss
Book • 2010
In 'The Hare with Amber Eyes', Edmund de Waal recounts the story of his inheritance of a collection of Japanese netsukes and uses them to explore his family's history.

The book follows the journey of these small Japanese carvings from their purchase by Charles Ephrussi in 19th-century Paris to their survival during World War II in Vienna and their eventual return to the family in postwar Tokyo.

De Waal reflects on the power and meaning of sight, touch, loss, and memory, providing a vivid and intimate account of a Jewish family's experiences through a tumultuous century.
