About
Bello takes us back to attorney Zachary Blake's Bar Mitzvah, his thirteenth birthday, and a life-changing conversation with his maternal grandfather.
On the eve of Zachary's Bar Mitzvah, Max Lewin fulfills his long-standing promise to his grandson: He is ready to tell Zack the incredible story of survival and escape from Auschwitz's death camp during World War II. Max shares his daily life at hard labor and encounters horrors and evil never before imagined.
But, through the darkness, there is light, a glimpse of hope, through an unlikely alliance that leads to a most daring and dangerous plan – a possible escape from Auschwitz. Max's story of survival and heroism inspires Zack's decisions about his future-he will help those less fortunate, as his grandfather and others had done, l'dor v'dor -- from generation to generation. Bello spins a mesmerizing tale of Jewish resistance and culture, the passing of the torch from one generation to another, the importance of family and religious continuity, and a shining example of the amazing resilience the Jewish people have demonstrated throughout history.
