Please join us on Zoom for this discussion of Ellen Feldman's "The Living and the Lost," at our monthly book club, hosted by HMTC’s Louis Posner Memorial Library. Working in bombed-out Berlin after the war is like living in a latter-day Wild West, where spies ply their trade, black markets thrive and forbidden fraternization is rampant. But Millie Mosbach and her brother, David, who escaped to the US just before Kristallnacht, leaving their parents and little sister behind in Berlin, must make peace with their rage at Germany and their guilt for their own good fortune, if they are to confront the demons of their past and work successfully to rebuild the city.
