THOMASVILLE, Ga., April 29, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A tormented past may still serve others a rewarding future. Author Yocheved Artzi brings us back to the deep torments of the Holocaust to spark feelings of love and determination in this heartfelt and touching memoir released by Xlibris, Stealing German Bread.
Based on a true story, Stealing German Bread is about two sisters who were thrown out of their normal life in Hungary straight into the Nazis' concentration camps. Starting with a recurring dream of a mother, a dream that reappears nightly well into years after the war, this touching and heartfelt tale shares how the two sisters supported each other inside the Nazis' concentration camps.
The author, Yocheved Artzi, who was born six years after the Holocaust, pours her deep personal thoughts and feelings in this book as a child who grew up in Israel among many Holocaust survivors. It also reveals her eighty-year-old mother's experience of the said war via transatlantic telephone calls sixty years after the war.
Emotion-stirring and inspirational, Stealing German Bread attempts to awaken the readers to a life of love and intense determination. For more information, log on to www.Xlibris.com.
