On the top shelf in his aunt's dressing room, Damien Freeman discovered a collection of family memorabilia that told a story he had always assumed to be perfectly unexceptional. The Aunt's Mirrors reveals an unexpected story of how an immigrant family from Poland made a new life - whilst continuing an old one - in 19th century Beechworth, Grafton, Rylstone and Sydney through the shared sense of meaningfulness that permeated the lives of seven generations of this Australian Jewish family.
