My Grandfather Would Have Shot Me: A Black Woman Discovers Her Family's Nazi Past (German release title: Amon. Mein Großvater hätte mich erschossen) is a memoir by German writer Jennifer Teege. It covers her discovery that her grandfather was Amon Göth, nicknamed the "Butcher of Płaszów" and famously depicted in Steven Spielberg's 1993 film Schindler's List.[1] Teege was adopted and learned about her family history after reading a biography of her biological mother, Monika Hertwig [de].[2][3][4]

The book was published in the United Kingdom and United States on 14 April 2015 through The Experiment publishing and was co-written by Nikola Sellmair.[5][6][7] The work details Teege's discovery of her ancestry and her attempts to come to terms with this revelation. Teege decides to research her family and travels to Israel and Kraków. Through this she also tries to reconnect with her estranged biological mother.
