from Let Fear Bounce - Tossing out nuggets of hope · host Host Kim Lengling
Author Robert Wolf, MD shares the story of his parents fleeing their homeland during WWII. "The disc, my father's story, called out to me. I felt like it summoned me." BIO Robert Wolf, MD, grew up as the only child of Ervin and Judit Wolf. The stories of their escape from communist Hungary, and his father's tragic history of escaping the Nazis twice but having his own parents taken to Auschwitz, inspired Robert to document his parents' tales and share those stories with Jewish groups and others throughout the United States. In "Not a Real Enemy" Robert shares his family saga and the forgotten history of the nearly half million Hungarian Jews who were deported and killed during the Holocaust through an epic and inspiring tale of daring escapes, terrifying oppression, tragedy, and triumph. About "Not a Real Enemy: The True Story of a Hungarian Jewish Man's Fight for Freedom" Robert Wolf, author and speaker released his new book "Not a Real Enemy: The True Story of a Hungarian Jewish Man's Fight for Freedom." The book details the remarkable story of his family's history that follows his Jewish parents and grandparents first living under the Nazis, and then under the communist regime in Hungary. It explores the depths of his family, shares their experiences, and his father Ervin Wolf's quest for freedom. In 1944, almost half a million Jewish Hungarians are deported to Auschwitz. Among the few surviving Hungarian Jews from this era were young men who, like Ervin Wolf, were conscripted into the brutal Forced Labor Service where they were cut off from the outside world and ordered to endure inhumane brutalities and servitude. Once freed, a new oppression took hold as a communist rule under Stalin turned friends into foes, enveloped the nation in fear and suspicion, and tested everyone's character and strength. This is the true story of Ervin Wolf and his family as the fascist tide of Eastern Europe takes hold of Hungary. From Wolf's comfortable upper-class life to imprisonment, daring escapes, tragic deaths, cloak-and-dagger adventures, and Ervin's final escape to freedom in the dead of night, "Not a Real Enemy" is a page-turning tale of suspense, tragedy, comedy, and ultimately, triumph.
