[The Azrieli Series of Holocaust Survivor Memoirs #7] David Newman?s gifts as a musician and a teacher carried him through years of brutality during WW II. Torn from his family in Poland and deported for forced labour at Skarzysko- Kamienna, David battles desperation and the mounting death toll by writing songs, poems and satires about life in the camp. Later, in the infamous Buchenwald camp, the resistance recruits him for a clandestine initiative to protect the Jewish children there. With his soulful songs and his lessons for the children, David is able to rouse a chorus of hope, both in himself and those around him, In 1951, the Newman family immigrated to Toronto, where they raised their children, Jack and Gloria.Translated from Yiddish by Miriam eckerman. David was a performer in Yiddish theatre productions, taught Yiddish to countless students and co-founded the Kol Yisroel congregation at the Borochov Centre.xxxii.149p. plates. index. map. Book.
