Warning This is an independent addition to The Last Jews in Berlin, meant to enhance your experience of the original book. If you have not yet bought the original copy, make sure to purchase it before buying this unofficial summary from aBookaDay. This book tells stories of hope amidst overwhelming sorrow - stories of courage and grace amidst fear and hatred. The project started in 1967, when Eric Lasher, a writer and editor, traveled to Berlin in search of people he had only ever heard rumors of - Jews who managed to hide out in Berlin during World War II. Lasher made contact with 18 people and recorded their incredible stories, but was ultimately unable to continue the project because it upset him too much. A decade later, Lasher's friend Leonard Gross picked up where he left off. The result is a book that is both unbearably painful and unbelievably triumphant. Over the course of 42 chapters, Gross weaves the tales of the struggles these people endured to survive and the losses they experienced. This is an incredibly powerful and important book. Available on PC, Mac, iphone, android, tablet or Kindle device. (c) 2016 All Rights Reserved
