____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

One Hundred Saturdays, recipient of the Jewish Book Council’s Natan Notable Book Award, is a remarkable story of ninety-nine-year-old Stella Levi whose conversations with the writer Michael Frank over the course of six years, bring to life the vibrant world of Jewish Rhodes, the deportation to Auschwitz that extinguished ninety percent of her community, and the resilience and wisdom of the woman who lived to tell the tale. Join author Michael Frank and world-renowned Holocaust scholar, Michael Berenbaum as they discuss this award-winning testament to remembrance and friendship.
