The Avengers, A Jewish War Story

The Avengers, A Jewish War Story

by Rich Cohen

  • BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
  • 2000
  • PAPER
  • 262 PAGES

Cohen conveys the passion, persistence and verve of three kids from the Jewish ghetto, who went from the streets of Vilna to fighting the Germans and, eventually, a Kibbutz north of Tel Aviv. Cohen, who first met Ruzka, Abba and Vitka on a family trip to Israel in 1977, has fashioned a suspenseful, riveting story from the tale of their remarkable lives. With sections on ghetto, forest, city and desert. Abba Kovner, who died in 1987, a poet, soldier and public figure in Israel, designed the Diaspora Museum in Tel Aviv.  (BLT16, $16.00)
