I don't remember anything from Lucha, although some still remember something that happened there three years ago. They say, for example, that they threw some pots of boiling water, including my father. So strings of scarring spread over his arms, and for the rest of his life he wore long sleeves. All I know about Lucha is what I heard from my parents. We were living in one of the workers' houses. In a one-story house, located in the "Amalka" camp, which was built forty years ago. The camp was just one long street of similar, neighboring houses. Our house was in the middle of those houses. My mom appears in photos from those days very skinny. Perhaps she was exhausted from striving between the nursery and the store on the one hand, and frequenting my father at the bar on the other. Maybe she was fed up with life in Lucha for this reason. She has never found real work in her major. She studied the art of sewing women's clothes. But the women of a mountain village did not need such a profession. The citizens of the village wore the same clothes. They only have one shirt and one spare pants they wear to party rallies. A single store for ready-to-wear clothes was sufficient for their wives, and next to it was a newspaper outlet, a blacksmith's supply store, and another for haberdashery. Sometimes my mom would knit clothes at someone's request. She used to say that she would be home on Tuesdays and Thursdays from eleven to four o'clock to receive orders. She wanted to name this salon, but the rumors started circulating. Dad returns from the bar one day, furious at trying to emerge as a great businesswoman, and tells her to stop immediately. Sure, it was men who pushed him into it. All my mom told me was that after a while she quit the sewing profession for the sake of my father, and it ended there.

This rich novel, in the best tradition of family sagas, tells the story of three generations of a Jewish family in Krakow from the beginning of the twentieth century to the eve of the German occupation of Poland in September 1939. The story of this large, middle-class Jewish family is also the story of a deeply-rooted Jewish community and its considerable cultural and material achievements, until disaster struck and it was wiped off the face of the earth. At the beginning of the century, Krakow was under Austrian rule. The mother of the family died, leaving a husband and eight children. A different destiny awaited each of the them, each story reflecting the options which faced Polish Jews at that time. With the outbreak of the First World War, the eldest son joined the army and was sent to the Italian front. He returned a broken man, and died shortly afterwards. The second son married happily, became a successful lumber merchant and a paterfamilias. He veered between Jewish and European culture and regarded Poland as his homeland. One of the sisters, a natural rebel, fell in love with a Polish non-Jew. When he abandoned her, she became a Zionist and immigrated to Eretz Israel. Her older sister was happily married to an old-style religious Jew. Another sister married an assimilated Jew and was uncertain as to her national identity, while the fourth fell in love with a Communist. Their prosperous brother had three children - two daughters and a son - who enjoyed life in independent Poland between the wars. When the Germans invaded Poland, the family missed the last train out and with it the chance to be saved. Most of the family perished in the Holocaust.

For well over thirty years, Eric P. Kelly’s Newbery Award winner has brought the color and romance of ancient times to young readers. Today, The Trumpeter of Krakow is an absorbing and dramatic as when it was first published in 1928. There was something about the Great Tarnov Crystal...Wise men spoke of it in hushed tones. Others were ready to kill for it. Now a murderous Tartar chief is bent on possessing it. But young Joseph Charnetski was bound by an ancient oath to protect the jewel at all costs. When Joseph and his family seek refuge in medieval Krakow, they are caught up in the plots and intrigues of alchemists, hypnotists, and a dark messenger of evil. Will Joseph be able to protect the crystal, and the city, from the plundering Tartars?

Originally published in 1996 in a joint Polish-English edition by Fundacja Judaica, Krakow.

Considered the "chronicler of Kracow Jewry," a virtually extinct world, he wrote the essays in both English and Polish, reflecting his particular perspective as a different kind of "survivor." Essay titles include "Krakow-blessed its memory," "The lesson of Auschwitz," "Rumkowski of the Lodz ghetto," and "Witnesses." Many originally appeared in The Jewish Quarterly (which Sharf co-founded). No index. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

In the vein of The Boy in the Striped Pajamas and Number the Stars, this fusion of fairy tales, folklore, and World War II history eloquently illustrates the power of love and the inherent will to survive even in the darkest of times. In the land of dolls, there is magic. In the land of humans, there is war. Everywhere there is pain. But together there is hope. Karolina is a living doll whose king and queen have been overthrown. But when a strange wind spirits her away from the Land of the Dolls, she finds herself in Kraków, Poland, in the company of the Dollmaker, a man with an unusual power and a marked past. The Dollmaker has learned to keep to himself, but Karolina’s courageous and compassionate manner lead him to smile and to even befriend a violin-playing father and his daughter—that is, once the Dollmaker gets over the shock of realizing a doll is speaking to him. But their newfound happiness is dashed when Nazi soldiers descend upon Poland. Karolina and the Dollmaker quickly realize that their Jewish friends are in grave danger, and they are determined to help save them, no matter what the risks.

Leon Leyson (born Leib Lezjon) was only ten years old when the Nazis invaded Poland and his family was forced to relocate to the Krakow ghetto. With incredible luck, perseverance and grit, Leyson was able to survive the sadism of the Nazis, including that of the demonic Amon Goeth, commandant of Plaszow, the concentration camp outside Krakow. Ultimately, it was the generosity and cunning of one man, a man named Oskar Schindler, who saved Leon Leyson's life, and the lives of his mother, his father, and two of his four siblings, by adding their names to his list of workers in his factory - a list that became world renowned: Schindler's List. This, the only memoir published by a former Schindler's List child, perfectly captures the innocence of a small boy who goes through the unthinkable. Most notable is the lack of rancour, the lack of venom, and the abundance of dignity in Mr Leyson's telling. The Boy on the Wooden Boxis a legacy of hope, a memoir unlike anything you've ever read.
