Praise for I Kiss Your Hand Many Times:

"I Kiss Your Hand Many Times is the sweeping story of Marianne Szegedy-Maszák's family in pre– and post–World War II Europe, capturing the many ways the struggles of that period shaped her family for years to come. But most of all it is a beautiful love story, charting her parents' devotion in one of history's darkest hours."—Arianna Huffington, president and editor-in-chief, the Huffington Post Media Group

"In this panoramic and gripping narrative of a vanished world of great wealth and power, Marianne Szegedy-Maszák restores an important missing chapter of European, Hungarian, and Holocaust history."—Kati Marton, author of Paris: A Love Story and Enemies of the People: My Family's Journey to America
