Dr. Henry Oster, author of
The Kindness of the Hangman
(Higgins Bay Press, 2014), which tells a gripping tale of the 2,011 Jews
who were rounded up by the Gestapo and deported from Cologne, Germany.
Henry is the only one still alive to tell their story. "Even in Hell,
There is Hope" writes Dr. Henry Oster who was five years-old when Adolf
Hitler took power in 1933. Dr. Oster & his co-writer Dexter Ford ( a
contributing editor to the New York Times) will be speaking and signing
copies of their book in
Dr. Linda Overman's Writing About Literature
class.
