MomentBooks Will Release THEODORE BIKEL'S 'THE CITY OF LIGHT' by Aimee Ginsburg Bikel and illustrations by Noah Phillips
by BWW News Desk - October 23, 2019
“Aimee Ginsburg Bikel's shaping and sharing of her beloved late husband Theo Bikel's tale of what he experienced as a little boy during the rise, and then explosion, of hatred that preceded the Holocaust, is beautiful, painfully powerful, and a great gift.
