Deeply movingElie Wiesel
A tone poem evocative of a vanished worldChaim Potok
In her own words and with her own beautiful paintings and drawings, artist Toby Knobel Fluek (19262011) lovingly unfurls a unique view of Jewish life. She introduces us to her village, to her family, to the people among whom they lived; she shows us how customs and holidays were observed; and, with both feeling and restraint, she illustrates how this long-enduring way of life was shattered by World War II. She depicts her family's experiences through Russian occupation and the devastation wreaked by the Nazisand, finally, her new beginning in America.
New to this edition is a foreword by Rakhmiel Peltz, PhD, PhD, Founding Director of the Judaic Studies Program at Drexel University, which he led for twenty years.
