Avengers by Richard Cohen
Rich Cohen, author of the acclaimed Tough Jews, again narrates a little-known episode of Jewish history, this time altering what we thought we knew about the Holocaust.Abba Kovner, Vitka Kempner, Ruzka Korczak-comrades, lovers, friends. In the Lithuanian ghetto of Vilna, they were the heart of a breathtakingly courageous underground movement, and when the ghetto was liquidated, they fled to the forests and joined other partisans in continued sabotage and resistance. Riveting, poignant and uplifting, The Avengers is a powerful exploration of resistance and revenge, of courage and dedication, and an inside look at some of the intrepid individuals who fought against the Holocaust and the nazi occupation of Europe.
Tough Jews and When I Stop Smiling, You'll Know I'm Dead are two of Rich Cohen's four New York Times bestseller books. He also contributes to Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair, among other publications. His debut book for children is Alex and the Incredible Time Machine.
