For Esther

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • "This is the moving story of a Jewish boy born into a life of poverty in Czechoslovakia. Left to his own devices at the age of eight, Alex scrounged hospitality wherever he could find it, always trying to keep one step ahead of the authorities. He survived childhood only to find himself dangerously caught up in the events surrounding World War II. Eventually he was taken prisoner and sent to the notorious German death camp at Mauthausen. If starvation didn't get him, the gas chamber surely would. But Alex was lucky ... Through letters to his beloved grand-daughter, Esther, the tale of Alex's past unfolds."
