Qesher Book Club: ‘Finding Home (Hungary, 1945)’
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher Book Club presents “Finding Home (Hungary, 1945)” by Dean Cycon. The story follows 18-year-old Eva Fleiss, who, after surviving nine months in Auschwitz by imagining herself playing the piano, returns to her hometown in Laszlo, Hungary, with the five other surviving Jews. As they attempt to restart their lives, Eva seeks a connection to her past by arranging to clean her former home, now occupied by the mayor, in exchange for piano practice time, leading to profound musical performances that resonate unexpectedly with the community.
