“Finding Home” (Hungary, 1945) is the first novel to explore the complex emotional, moral and economic dynamics of Jewish concentration camp survivors trying to return to their hometown after the war, from the point of view of the returnees and the townspeople. It is a poignant tale that describes the return of Eva Fleiss and five other Jews to Laszlo, a small town in Hungary. Each of the Jewish survivors experiences the town and their return to it slightly differently. But what they share is an utter sense of being alone.
The evening will include performances by noted klezmer musicians Jason Ditzian (clarinet) and Bea Carlson (accordion) of Myrtle Street Klezmer performing Hungarian music interspersed with excerpts from the book. Dean Cycon is a local author, lawyer, human rights advocate and social entrepreneur.
