Historical Fiction Examines Life for Jews in Nazi Germany
NEW YORK (PRWEB) October 16, 2017 -- As recorded testimony and documentation reminds society of human rights violations committed throughout history, Herb Rothman authored a work of historical fiction that depicts what it was like for Jewish families to live under Nazi Germany in “Journey to Freedom.”
The novel examines life in Germany during World War I and prior to World War II through the eyes of protagonist Yehuda Roitmentz – a young, Jewish clothing factory owner who grew up in Altona, Germany. As the Nazis come to power in his country, Yehuda attempts to disrupt the party’s activities by way of joining a resistance group, ultimately landing himself in a concentration camp.
“This book is based on a true story,” said Rothman. “It is a tribute to my parents and their lives in both Nazi Germany and as immigrants in America.”
“Journey to Freedom” explores themes of bravery and love in a time of violence and darkness.
