Artist's book presenting the story of Rudolph Brazda who, when he died in 2011, was the last known survivor of the Nazi concentration camps who had been incarcerated because he was a homosexual. Forced to wear a pink triangle, Brazda survived three years in Buchenwald. After his liberation, Brazda lived in Alsace until his death. Morin weaves Brazda's story with the German folktale of The White Maiden.

Colophon: "'The White Maiden' is the tale of a hunter who wishes for the ancient wines of the cellars at Thurnberg in a moment of great thirst. His wish is granted by the White Maiden but, as a result of drinking the wine, she forever plagues him with a sense of wanting, an inability to take satisfaction in anything .... The paper used most commonly in this book is from a private stash of Barcham Green ... Other handmade papers come from collaboration with Lisa Beth Robinson, Brian Borchardt, and Caren Heft. The type is Plantin, cast by Michael and Winifred Bixler's Press and Letterfoundry."
