A facsimile
edition of the New Year prayer service handwritten from memory by
Hungarian Cantor Naftali Stern on pieces of paper torn from cement
sacks in the Wolfsberg Labor Camp, part of the infamous Gross-Rosen
Slave Labor Complex, in which conditions were especially difficult.
Yet even under the harshest conditions, the Jews continued to
celebrate the holy days.
“Special and moving, including an
article on the unique story of the author and of the Machzor. With
original art from the camp.” [Yaffa Goldstein, Hatzofeh, 13
September 2000]
“Photocopies of the prayers now in the
Yad Vashem archives, chilling as a distant scream. Includes articles
on maintaining religious faith during the Holocaust.” [Shiri Artzi,
Ha’ir, 15 October 2000] |
