Description

When she received a box of letters and documents from a German priest in 1996, local author Barbara Stark-Nemon was already captivated by the story of her great-aunt’s Holocaust survival, and the unconventional life she and the priest lived in post-war Germany. What she learned from the contents of that box cemented her motivation to write about it. Barbara will share the story of how 15 years of research, interviews, translations and international travel informed Even in Darkness, her debut novel, and how what she learned influenced her understanding of the Holocaust.
