The Diary of Rywka Lipszyc
The JFCS Holocaust Center published The Diary of Rywka Lipszyc in partnership with Lehrhaus Judaica.
After more than 70 years in obscurity, the diary of a Polish teenage girl which was found at Auschwitz in 1945 has been revealed for the first time.
The newly discovered diary, written in the Lodz ghetto during World War II, is an astonishing historical document and a moving tribute to the many ordinary people whose lives where forever altered by the Holocaust. Accompanied by rich background materials, the book is destined to become an important source of inspiration for students of the Holocaust around the world.
A soft-cover edition published by Harper Collins will be available in the Fall of 2015 in the U.S. Buy the Diary >
