About event
The book The Boy from Block 66 tells the true story of Moshe Kessler, who survived five Nazi camps and was liberated in April 1945 in Buchenwald. The author of the book, Limor Regev, will present the story of block 66, from where almost a thousand Jewish children, including Moše, were rescued thanks to the Czech political prisoner Antonín Kalin. Today, 94-year-old Moše lives in Israel and is happy that readers all over the world are getting to know his story.
We organize the meeting with Limor Regev in cooperation with the Bourdon Publishing House.
The evening will be held in English, interpretation into Czech provided. Free admission. Limited capacity, please reserve a seat.
LECTURER:
Limor Regev specializes in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and territorial politics in Israel. In the past, she held a number of academic positions, among others she worked as an expert for the Institute of National Security Studies (INSS) and currently works at the Department of International Relations at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
Limora's parents left Poland for Palestine in the 1930s , and thus avoided the fate of their parents and siblings who perished in Treblinka. Her personal interest in the history of the Holocaust led her to write her first book - the life story of Moše Kessler, who survived Auschwitz and Buchenwald and today tells his story to future generations.
