"On the Run in Nazi Berlin" is the memoir of Bert Lewyn in which he vividly tells his story of growing up in Nazi Germany during the war.
In 1942, after the Gestapo arrested Lewyn and his parents, the 18-year-old was forced to work in a weapons factory, while his parents were deported to a concentration camp. His book is the story of his escape and courageous struggle to survive underground.
Lewyn, who co-authored the book with his daughter-in-law, Bev Saltzman, will hold a book discussion at this Sunday, Jan. 29 at 2 p.m.
The temple sisterhood will provide refreshments at the free event, which is open to the public.
The temple is located at 1145 Green Street. Reservations are appreciated; contact nnrose@comcast.net.
