CHASING SHADOWS is an intimate, spiritual, often humorous portrait of holocaust survivor, radio personality, and beloved rabbi Hugo Gryn, and the vanished world of his upbringing. Published posthumously, Gryn describes his idyllic childhood in the once vibrant and tight-knit Jewish community of Carpathia, and the aftermath of Nazi-occupation as his family is forced into the Ghetto and then transported to Auschwitz. A witness and survivor of evil, Hugo Gryn emerges with a determination to do good and CHASING SHADOWS is a testimony of his great spirit - showing why he became one of Britain's best-loved spiritual figures and broadcasters.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Hugo Gryn made a huge impression on the general public with his Radio 4's "The Moral Maze": his wisdom, humour and compassion shone through the programme so that his sudden death in 1996 was greeted with great sadness. Few people knew though of his extraordinary life. This book consists of two separate memoirs written 40 years apart, which tell of his idyllic childhood in Berehovo in the Carpathian mountains and the increasing shadows thrown by the Nazis - until Hugo and his family were deported to Auschwitz. He describes the horrors but also the small acts of human courage and kindness. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR001190079
