Author Edith Netter discusses ‘The House at Schumannstrasse 7′

BANGOR, Maine (WABI) - Edith Netter is the author of “The House at Schumannstrasse 7.” She spent years researching her family’s past and retracing her grandmother’s journey to freedom.

Summary:

“A Holocaust survivor’s story told in the voice of the author’s grandmother, Alice Rothschild Netter.

“From a beloved home seized by the Nazis to imprisonment in a German concentration camp, from British internment camps to the Kindertransport, the intimate story of one family’s fight to survive in the face of relentless horror. At its center is a little-known and never-before-chronicled escape: a perilous journey on a “sealed train” from Berlin to Lisbon — and, ultimately, to freedom.

“More than a story of survival, this memoir is a testament to grit, courage, and the stubborn insistence on hope — even when the future is uncertain and the past is too painful to put into words.

“In sharing her grandmother’s voice, Edith Netter helps ensure that memory is not lost to silence — and that stories once hidden can illuminate the present.”
